Mural de Favaios Moscatel NV

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalFrom the Douro, this moscatel galego was macerated and fermented in stainless prior to aging 3 years in older oak barrels. Pouring a golden walnut hue, this waxes the palate with maple, butterscotch, salt roasted hazelnuts, and candied orange peel. The sweetness is countered by a swell of citrus acidity, taking this to a gently warming finish. Certainly a worthy contender for the numerous egg custards / puddings / tarts that which Portugal excels.Tasted: 12 April 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
