Winemaker Notes
Our 2009 Columbia Valley Riesling offers our
trademark heady aromatics of tangerine, apricots, ripe pineapple and savory spices. White peach, sweet pear and Honeydew melon flavors along with a subtle minerality are followed by a firm acidity that balances the wine against the residual sugar.

The story of J. Bookwalter Winery is a story of family heritage, deep roots and a centuries-old commitment to the land. Ten generations of the Bookwalter family have been involved in American agriculture. But it was Jerry Bookwalter, generation nine and father of current company president John Bookwalter, who led the family into viticulture. After graduating from UC-Davis in 1963, Jerry spent 13 years farming in California’s San Joaquin Valley before moving his family in 1976 to the Tri-Cities in Washington State.
Once there, he firmly stamped the Bookwalter name on the state’s nascent wine industry. From 1976 through 1982, Jerry helped manage the plantings of three iconic vineyards – Sagemoor, Bacchus and Dionysus.
