Description
It has a very intense aroma, while still preserving some citrus notes. Rich in typical aging aromas, such as walnut, dried figs, toast, and cocoa. The flavor is full-bodied yet delicate, with the sweetness well balanced by the acidity, fresh and elegant.
Winemaking:
Favaios 1980 is a type of wine that is only vinified in years when the grapes have demonstrated exceptional quality. After careful selection of the best Favaios grapes, they were macerated and fermented as was traditional in the region. Alcoholic fermentation is very short, and soon after the cap rises, most of the must is drained off and brandy is added. A small portion of the must continues to ferment and macerate with the skins for a few more days, and only then is this aromatically rich must fortified. The first and second fortified musts are then blended and stored in very old wooden barrels, where they age slowly, refining their bouquet over decades.
