Delicate and fine muscat whites with a tender palate and moderate acidity, on intense and refined aromas of orange blossom, rose, fresh grape, citrus, white peach and airy muscat (more subtle than Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains). Made as aromatic dry aperitif whites (Alsace, Baden), off-dry and sumptuous botrytised liquoreux (Burgenland in Austria, Cotnari in Romania, Tokaj). Created in the 19th century by Robert Moreau (Angers), a cross of Chasselas × Muscat de Saumur.
Emblematic zone of Hungarian Balaton, north shore on extinct volcanoes with unique basalt soils. Signature structured mineral whites: basalt releases potassium and magnesium, conferring striking minerality and salinity. Rare reborn native Kéknyelű with signature notes of lemon, white apple, fresh herbs and a smoky mineral touch. Olaszrizling (most planted) fresh, Szürkebarát (Pinot Gris) ample, taut Furmint.
