Winemaker Gilles Martin Notes
VINTAGE NOTE
Our Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc came from the North Fork of Long Island, and our Gewurztaminer and Pinot Gris came from a top grower in the Finger Lakes. The 2009 growing season was cooler and rainier than in 2008, which affected brix and acidity levels. However, the challenging weather did not affect white grapes as it did the red grapes, because they were harvested sooner.
TASTING NOTE
With its straw white color, this fresh and lively wine offers delightful and complex aromas of apple, pear, citrus, pineapple and spice. Crisp, round and well balanced, Bouké White has a strong finish bursting with exciting flavors.
