Im Weingarten

Mehrere Weingärten im Norden von Langenlois sind mit den Sorten Gelber Muskateller und Muskat Ottonel bepflanzt, wobei letzterer in den kühleren Lagen steht. Ertragsreduktion steht an oberster Stelle und Traubenteilen im Sommer ist jährlich am Plan um einen klarfruchtigen Muskat zu keltern.

Im Keller

Etwa zwei Drittel Gelber Muskateller und ein drittel Muskat Ottonel werden bereits vor der Gärung zusammengeführt. Dabei bringt der Gelbe Muskateller die gewohnte Fruchtdominanz, die von der Eleganz und Milde des Muskat Ottonels abgerundet wird.
