The white grape variety (breeding no. New York 62-0122-01) is an interspecific new variety between Muscat du Moulin (Couderc 603 x Pedro Ximénez) x Muscat Ottonel. It contains genes from Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1962 by grower Bruce Reisch and Thomas Henick-Kling at the Grapevine Breeding Institute of Cornell University in Geneva, New York. Plant variety protection was granted in 2006.

If I were to rate websites, you would deserve the highest rating. It is rare to come across websites that provide such a large amount of data and are still so intuitive to use. Respect for the lovingly researched and informatively prepared encyclopedia. Keep it up!
