The possibilities include dry soil and early greenfly attack or both. These are common problems on honeysuckle on a warm wall. Mildew is another but you say the foliage recovers.
If the plant consistently fails in that spot, year after year, try moving it to a cooler place, or if it is now too big, remove it and plant something that likes to have a warm wall, such as wisteria.
