About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
You will enjoy ‚Birstaler Muskat’, a greenish‑yellow table grape from Switzerland that combines a fine muscat character with a pleasantly robust nature. The loose bunches ripen from mid‑September and dry well after rain, preventing rot. Self‑fertile, a second vine for pollination is not required.
You will taste bright, juicy berries with an elegant muscat aroma and balanced sweetness, a fine snack grape for your home wall.
