Château Bastor-Lamontagne 1999

Sauternes, Graves, Bordeaux, FranceThe wine is fermented in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels and is then matured in small oak barriques (25 per cent new) for 15 months. Expect a ripe nectarine and mineral nose with honey almost sugary aromas and just a trace of botrytis. Fat, baked pear flavours with more honey and citrus in warm finish. Introductory style, solid Sauternes for curious dessert wine fans.Tasted: 15 April 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
