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: $9.95
 
Winery 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: This wine had sugary notes on the nose. It tasted extremely sweet, almost syrupy, and had a honey-like component. This wine would be great with dessert to tone down its overwhelming sweetness. I enjoyed the wine but next time I would rather drink it with dessert, maybe some cheesecake or chocolates!

I tasted this wine with on its own without food.
