My picks for December...

This is my wine picks for December.


2001 Château Moulinet, Pomerol
Ruby with brownish rim, ripe black fruits and mocha. It also have some earthy/farm note. Medium boded, very silky on the plate and well balanced. Again some ripe black fruits, nice and ripe tannins and very long and enjoyable finish ending with liquorice. Very nice and looking forward to see how it will develop in a few years. (88 pts)


2000 Les Pelerins de Lafon-Rochet, St. Estèphe
Dark red, with intense aromas of cedar, spice, coffee, chocolate, and plum. Full boded, dense wine, with fruit and creamy texture. Well balanced, sweet and rich. Long nutty/chewy (tannins) finish. (89 pts)


1999 Réserve de la Comtesse, Pauillac
Darkish read, woody-spicy on nose with some smoky, cedar. Medium bodied and well balanced but not very long. Nice claret bouquet bouquet. Drink up. (88 pts)
