Favonius Skin Contact is an intriguing amber-hued wine, crafted with minimal intervention from Arinto and Fernão Pires grapes. This wine embodies the winemaker’s commitment to natural methods and preserving the authentic character of Portuguese varieties. Named after Favonius, the Roman god of the western winds, it reflects the breezes that influence the vineyards where these grapes flourish. Leading the blend, Fernão Pires contributes its medium acidity and high aromatic intensity, enhanced by extended skin contact. The result is a wine with complex aromas of ginger, caramel, juniper, and melon, complemented by a textured, vibrant palate. Take this adventurous sip next to a duck liver pâté in a vineyard sunset stroll followed by an outdoor toast.
