Winemaking:
Favaios is a sweet Muscat wine made from Muscat grapes intended to be consumed before and after meals. Although it is able to retain its qualities for several years after bottling, this wine is intended for immediate consumption. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature (23ºC to 25ºC) for around two days, with a intensive skin contact. It is then interrupted by the addition of brandy, resulting in a wine with high levels of alcohol and residual sugar. It is then aged for at least two years in oak vats and stainless steel containers before being sold.
