BOS Wine’s Wishflower

Bottoms Up

By Anna Faller | Sept. 20, 2025

When you wish upon a flower—that’s how the line goes, right?—all your wine dreams come true. At least, that’s the case at Bos Wine in Elk Rapids, where the 2024 vintage of their fan-favorite BOS Wishflower white has just hit the bar. Named for the delightfully wishable (and elusive) petals of the dried dandelion, this bright and crispy blend of Leelanau and Old Mission Peninsula fruit features Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, and Chardonnay grapes finished briefly “on the lees” (aka, in contact with fine yeast sediment), which helps build complexity and adds silky texture. The result is a gorgeously-balanced glass with notes of white florals, wet rock, and citrus, lifted by a delicate but nuanced acidity. We’ll take the whole darn bouquet!
