Bourboulenc - Traube und Blatt

Origin

This very old variety was first mentioned in 1515 as Borbolenques in the Département of Vaucluse and in 1538 as Borbollenque near Avignon. The name is probably derived from a vineyard called Barbolenquiera near Avignon.

Ancestry

The parentage is unknown. It should not be confused with the Clairette (possibly related), Ondenc, Picardan or Roussette (Roussaou) varieties due to some of the same synonyms or morphological similarities. The variety was a crossing partner of the new variety Clairette Dorée Ganzin.
