New York Muscat

 

 

Le New York Muscat a été hybridé et rendu public par un éminent membre de la communauté scientifique de l’Est des États-Unis reconnu nationalement et internationalement pour son travail: le Dr John Einset.

 

When he retired in 1973, he was appointed Emeritus Professor of Pomology and Viticulture by Cornell University.

When he died, Cornell University paid tribute to him by publishing a text in his memory in which it is said that “Professor Einset was one of the best fruit cytogeneticists and arborists in the world.”

 

In memory of his immense contribution to the world of viticulture, a variety bred for the hybridization program at Cornell University was named «Einset». (Another grape variety offered by Vignes Chez Soi) (Another grape variety offered by Vignes Chez Soi)

 

Many who have tasted New York Muscat instantly make it a favorite and quickly fall in love with this distinctive and sought-after flavor of Muscat. It has been proven that of all the Muscat-flavored hybrids, the New York Muscat is one of the very best.

 

New York Muscat is very popular in Nova Scotia

 

Le Suffolk Red -également disponible chez Vignes Chez Soi- est l’un des autres cépages introduit par le Dr Einset le plus remarqué.
