Wines made from Muscat Ottonel grapes of Luxembourg
Discover the best wines made with Muscat Ottonel as a single variety or as a blend of Luxembourg.
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.
Luxembourg (officially the "Grand Duchy of Luxembourg") is a landlocked country at the junction of Belgium, Germany and France. It is a small country compared to its neighbours, stretching 80 km from North to South and 50 km from west to east, covering just over 2,500 square kilometres. Only 1% of this area is devoted to wine growing. Located in the north of Western Europe, it is one of the coolest wine regions in the world.
