Curiosity
Muller-Thurgau is the grape variety originally from geisenheim in Germany and was created in the late 19th Century, by crossing Riesling Rhine and Madeleine Royale by the Swiss winemaker Herman Muller Thurgau.The process involved floral pollination, or by putting the pollen of a father grape in contact with the flower of a mother grape. The cultivation of Muller Thurgau in Italy developed in 1939, concentrating mainly in Trentino Alto Adige but also in Val Tidone the fertile ground was ideal for this grape.
