Post by Winesense »

Hi,

do enjoy myself I add an extra challenge to my wine trinking. Find the look alikes of big in wines in humble chateaus :

I will reveal some of the look alikes I found:

1990 Citran - Mouton Rothschild
2001 Sociando Mallet - Latour
2001 Lafon Medoc - PiCoLa (well, no premier.. ok)
2006 La Fleur St. Emilion - Ausone
1998 Grave a Pomerol - Petrus

I will reveal Margaux when I bought enough of the look alike ... ;)

Any suggestions for Lafite, Haut Brion? Name you look alikes!

Robert -Interesting selections..having not tasted either of your recommendations, I'm initially surprised that neither choice is from Pessac/Graves. What makes them reminiscent of HB?
