Synonyms are Frühmuscat, Frühmuskat Oberlin, Misket Oberlin, Muscat Hatif, Muscat Oberlin, Muskat Früh, Muskat Früh Oberlin and Oberlin's Muscat.

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
