Osceola Muscat
Osceola Muscat, also known as Muscat de Swenson, is a versatile and hardy grape variety bred by renowned grape breeder Elmer Swenson. Developed from a mix of French and North American grape species, this variety thrives in cooler climates. Named after Osceola, Wisconsin, where it was bred, Osceola Muscat produces small to medium-sized, intensely aromatic grapes with notes of peach and apricot.
