Table wine on mine. My suggestions and comments about afordable wines available in Bay Area. "pelog" is for "pelure d'oignon" (a very cheap French wine "onion peel"), "pelous" my last name and "blog" of course.

Pomerol idol
OK today I'm making a step away from the main idea of this blog to comment only "cheap" wines but I have to share and log this memorable experience I had 2 days ago with this Pomerol Chateau Moulinet 2001. This bottle seems to cost around $25 in the US but provide a satisfaction woth the price. I don't have the pro words to describe such wine but I can say that this wine is made essentially from Merlot and if I use Google translation to convert the French characteristic of the Pomerol into English I get:"Rounds and flexible, at the same time as vigorous, they are equipped with a powerful and cordial bouquet" If it makes sense to you and want to learn more about Bordeaux wines here is an interesting and complete book available online: La planète-vin / Bordeaux and you can use of course Google translation to translate the whole site in English! Now I'm gonna feel bad about the next $5 wine ;-)
