Bourboulenc

**Bourboulenc** is a white grape of southern France, one of the permitted varieties in the wines of the Southern Rhône and across the Languedoc. It is usually a blending grape, adding freshness and lift rather than starring on its own. **In the glass** — it offers delicate aromas of citrus, white flowers and a faintly smoky, herbal note. The palate is light to medium in body, with crisp acidity and a clean, refreshing finish that helps balance richer partners in a blend. **Where it grows** — it is found throughout the Southern Rhône, including Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and down through the Languedoc, notably in La Clape near the Mediterranean coast where it ripens well. **At the table** — suits grilled fish, shellfish and Provençal vegetable dishes. **Cellaring** — generally best drunk young, when its bright acidity and delicate aromatics are at their freshest.
