Caprice de Bastor-Lamontagne
2004
$7.95
Sauternes, France
60% Semillon, 36% Sauvignon Blanc, 4% Muscadelle (sweet grape)
 
The Vintage Cellar says: 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 thoughts: This wine smelled strongly of honeysuckles. I also picked up that lemon zest again. It tasted so much of honey. It was too sweet for my tastes. I got a squeeze of lemon and also vanilla.
