The 2015 Bastor-Lamontagne has a pure, honeyed, acacia-tinged bouquet that soars from the glass. The palate is well balanced with a sensual, honeyed texture, well-judged acidity and a smooth, quite concentrated finish. This is one of the best wines that I have tasted from the estate in recent years. Chapeau!
A luscious, mellow Sauternes with a lot of caramel and toast character and some grapefruit freshness. Nice creaminess on the mid-palate, then a long, lively citrus finish.
