Authentic Life, Lda (NIF 510804187, Santarém), which trades as Authentic Wines and makes the Favonius natural wines from Lisboa-region grapes, has Favonius Vinho Branco in the order range of Norway’s Vinmonopolet, imported by Swirl Wines AS.
nif.pt lists Authentic Life, Lda (NIF 510804187) in Santarém. eInforma gives its seat as Rua Capelo e Ivens, 54, 2000-039 Santarém, registers its activity as beverage retail (CAE 47250) and names authenticwines.pt as its website. That site, Authentic Wines, describes natural wines with an Atlantic influence: minimal cellar intervention, organic vineyard farming and Portuguese grape varieties. Its brand, Favonius, is named after the Roman god of the western wind, which the company says dominates the Lisboa region where its grapes are grown; it made four wines under the brand for 2023.
Vinmonopolet’s product catalogue lists Favonius Vinho Branco 2023 (article 17112501, 75 cl, NOK 149.90; Arinto 90%, Fernão Pires 10%) in the order range (Bestillingsutvalget), with Authentic Life as producer and Swirl Wines AS as the Norwegian importer. A second line, Favonius Curtimenta (article 18241201), is listed but long-term sold out.
Vinmonopolet is Norway’s retail alcohol monopoly, so a catalogue listing is the route by which a Portuguese producer reaches Norwegian consumers. Small natural-wine producers usually get there through specialist importers such as Swirl Wines.
