SEARCHHistoric Moscatel Marks 70 Years of Adega de Favaios
Seventy years of life, seven selected harvests, the best from each decade. The unique edition of the new aged Moscatel from Adega de Favaios reflects the dynamism of our cooperative.
The new commemorative Moscatel for the 70th anniversary of Adega de Favaios is not only an elite and unique wine. It is also a reflection of the cooperative spirit that Adega de Favaios has successfully realized. Offering each member a bottle of this commemorative Moscatel, a blend of seven different harvests, carries great symbolism.
“We chose the best harvest from each decade of the winery’s life, aiming to create a symbolic and representative Moscatel of this cooperative,” explains the chief oenologist, Miguel Ferreira, acknowledging that the blend contains “wines with quite diverse profiles that appeal to different preferences.” The final result, however, can only be of excellence, he concludes: “Seven very good things can never result in something bad.”
The Moscatel Adega de Favaios 70 Years includes harvests that are no longer on the market (1964, 1975), some still available for purchase (1980, 1999), and others in the winery’s heritage reserve (2007, 2011, and 2020).
RELAVANT NEWS
Favaios records an increase in the harvest of Moscatel grapes in the 2022 vintage. The cooler climate of the plateau justifies this growth, contrary to what was expected for the Demarcated Douro Region.
Adega de Favaios submits several of its wines to expert tastings every year. This participation in the most important international and national competitions is a testament to our work and the quality of our wines.
