Tasting - Caprice de Bastor-Lamontagne


Name: Caprice de Bastor-Lamontagne
Variety: 60% Semillon, 36% Sauvignon Blanc, 4% Muscadelle
Region: Sauternes
Country: France
Year: 2004
Price: $7.95

Wine Review: Very clean, with lemon, mineral and honey aromas that follow through to a medium body. Shows vanilla, apple, and melon flavors, with a medium finish. Lightly sweet.

My review: For it's light color and smell, this wine was surprisingly heavy - physically so. The consistency was thick, almost like maple syrup. Sweet to the taste and sweet to smell, but I'm not sure I could just sit and sip this wine.
