Muller Thurgau is a grape variety obtained in 1882 by the Swiss Hermann Muller originally from Thurgau, hence the name, by crossing two varieties: the Riesling Rhenish and the Silvaner. Recent studies on its DNA seem to exclude the kinship with Silvaner, making it more inclined towards Chasselas, a vine grown in France but of Swiss origins used to produce table grapes.
The cluster is small, cylindrical, pyramidal, winged, moderately compact. The grapes are medium, ellipsoidal, with a thin greenish-yellow skin. The budding, flowering and veraison periods are medium. Due to its vegetative and enological characteristics, Muller-Thurgau is a vine that is very suitable for cultivation in cold climates and can also be vinified in years of low sun exposure. For these reasons it is widespread in Germany and in Trentino-Alto Adige and finds an ideal location in the vineyards of Borgo dei Posseri.
