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.
