It is part of the broad vine varieties of the family. Moscatel Galego Branco is also known by the synonyms Moscatel Branco and Moscatel do Douro, designations that indicate in a tacit way its geographic dispersion centered in the parishes of Favaios, Alijó and Sanfins do Douro, generally at altitudes between 500 and 600 meters. It is among the white wines of the region, either in batch or on its own, as the well-known Moscatel of Favaios that Moscatel Galego Branco usually shines.
