Only wine made from Muscat grapes smells and tastes like grapes. Perhaps because "table grapes" are also often Muscat-like. Yellow Muscat is the most famous. It produces distinctive, sultry wines with hints of spice and orange blossom.
The French call it Muscat blanc à petit grains. They often make it sweet or semi-sweet. The Austrians call it Gelber Muskateller. They primarily make minerally dry wines from it. Ideal as an aperitif or with a light, fairly neutral appetizer. Styria is the best Austrian region for Gelber Muskateller. Gelber Muskateller is very old and has traveled the globe. No other grape variety has so many synonyms.
