Growing Characteristics

Mathiász Jánosné Muscat is a moderately vigorous and high-yielding variety that prefers nutrient-rich soils and sunny locations. It is sensitive to excessive crop load, so balanced pruning is particularly important for achieving high-quality fruit. The clusters tolerate transportation well, while the berries are less susceptible to physical damage thanks to their relatively thick skins.

Resistance and Hardiness

Thanks to its distinctive Muscat flavour, it is particularly well suited for fresh consumption, but can also be used to produce light, aromatic homemade wine.
