Muscat du Moulin

This white grape variety is a new cross between Couderc 603 (Bourrisquou x Rupestris) x Pedro Ximénez. Synonyms are 299-35, Couderc 19 and Couderc 299-35. It contains genes from Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1894 by the breeder Georges Couderc (1850-1928) in France. The variety was a crossing partner in the new varieties L'Acadie Blanc and Valvin Muscat. No stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson).

In the past, you needed a wealth of encyclopaedias and specialist literature to keep up to date in your vinophile professional life. Today, Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one of my best helpers and can rightly be called the "bible of wine knowledge".
