  2018 Château Cantemerle 5. GRAND CRU CLASSÉ HAUT-MÉDOC A.C.

  James Suckling: 94-95/100 Punkte »A rich and layered young Bordeaux with a solid center palate of ripe fruit and coated with ripe and polished tannins. Tightly wound ball now. Pretty texture and length to this.« Wine Enthusiast: 92-94/100 Punkte »Barrel Sample. This wine shows rich dark fruit on top of firm, dry tannins. It has structure and concentration, offering a dense wine that is going to develop well.« Decanter: 92/100 Punkte »There's an enjoyable texture and plush fruit in this elegant, well balanced wine. It has precise aromatics of black pepper, liquorice and freshly cut herbs. It's good but a touch more restrained than most of its peers. 33hl/ha. Aged in 40% new oak. 6% Petit Verdot makes up the blend. Drinking Window 2023 - 2038«  Falstaff: 92/100 Punkte »Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feine Nuancen von Dörrfeigen, floraler Touch, ein Hauch von Cassis, attraktives Bukett. Saftig, süße Herzkirschen, feine, reife Tannine, elegant und anhaftend, ein facettenreicher Begleiter bei Tisch.«  Vinum: 16,5/20 Punkte »Von saftiger, erfrischender Art, ausgewogen, knackiges Tannin, gut gemacht, bekömmlich, mit gut abgestimmtem Alkohol. 2026 bis 2035«  Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

  2018 Château Grand Mayne GRAND CRU CLASSÉ SAINT-ÉMILION A.C.

  Wine Enthusiast: 93-95/100 Punkte »Barrel Sample. Already a stylish wine, this wine is rich in smoky tannins as well as ripe black fruit. Its acidity shows the freshness of ripe Merlot from this vintage, but overall the structure and concentration are well in place.« Falstaff: 93/100 Punkte »Dunkles Rubingranat, tiefer Farbkern, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Zarte Edelholzwürze, schwarze Beerenfrucht, frische Kirschen, kandierte Orangenzesten. Saftig, süße Kirschen, zart nach Nougat, integrierte Tannine, bleibt gut haften, angenehme Extraktsüße im Finale, sicheres Reifepotenzial.« Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 91-93+/100 Punkte »The 2018 Grand Mayne is deep garnet-purple colored and gives up a nose of baked blackberries, prunes and raisin cake with touches of dusty soil, sautéed herbs and fungi. Full and concentrated, with a firm, chewy texture, it delivers a spicy finish.« Decanter: 91/100 Punkte »This is good, but the bigger they are the more these wines start to homogenise and lose their individual personalities. The extraction here is confident and the fruit is brambly heading into a dark character. The firm structure is filled out with liquorice, dark chocolate and glossy tannins, but you may beg for a little more light. This is going to take its time to unfurl, that much is certain. Drinking Window 2026 - 2040« Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

  Shadow Dance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 394min

  'The scar drew her whole face sideways, and even in profile, with the hideous thing turned away, her face was horribly lopsided, skin, features and all, dragged away from the bone. She was a beautiful girl, a white and golden girl, like moonlight on daisies, a month ago.' And yet the men still hover around her, more out of curiosity than lust, and none more so than the wildly seductive, dangerous funny man Honeybuzzard; lithe as a stick of liquorice, he is the demonic puppet master at the swirling centre of the tale. ungekürzt.

  2018 Château Ormes de Pez St.Estephe 6HK

  James Suckling: 93-94/100 Punkte »This is very dense and lively with blueberry and blackberry character. Lots of purple fruit at the end. Full body and powerful tannins. Spicy undertones with hints of black tea.« Decanter: 93/100 Punkte »This has the luxurious kick of the Lynch Bages stable and is brilliant value for this level of quality. It seems to manage this every vintage and is just such a brilliant drinking wine. 2018 is another excellent year here, with deep fruitfulness of brambled hedgerow alongside liquorice and woodsmoke. It has a polyphenol index of 84IPT, so this is full of tannins but they don't feel overpowering. Tasted several times and always striking. 45% new oak. 3.57pH. Drinking Window 2024 - 2036«  Falstaff: 93/100 Punkte »Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Attraktive frische schwarze Waldbeerfrucht, mineralisch, Kirschen, kandierte Orangenzesten. Saftig, reife Pflaumen, extraktsüßer Kern, ein Hauch von Marille, reife Tannine, gute Länge, sicheres Entwicklungspotenzial.«  Wine Spectator 90-93/100 Punkte »Fresh and racy, with a stream of violet and cassis flavors that is tightly focused. Pure, offering a minerally echo.« Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 90-92/100 Punkte »Composed of 50% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot and aging in 45% new barriques, the deep purple-black colored 2018 Ormes de Pez leaps from the glass with vibrant blackberries, black cherries and mulberries scents plus touches of garrigue, tree bark and bay leaves. Medium to full-bodied with bags of muscular fruit, it has a firm, grainy texture and great freshness, finishing on an herbal lift.« Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

  2017 2017 Chateau Plince Pomerol In 6er Holzkiste

  Ein wuchtiger, eher maskuliner Pomerol. In der Nase etwas rau und ungestüm. Tiefdunkle Früchte geben den Ton an. Am Gaumen Lakritze, Teer, etwas Rauch. Durch sein kräftiges, rustikales Tanningerüst ist der 2017er Plince wie gemacht für geduldige Bordeaux-Fans! (91 Punkte) Wine Spectator: 87-90/100 Punkte "Accessible, with rounded boysenberry and raspberry fruit laced with light spice and tea details. The open-knit feel will make this tasty right out of the gate."  Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 89-91/100 Punkte "A final blend of 79% Merlot and 21% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Plince offers up intense crème de cassis, blueberry pie and licorice notes with touches of bay leaves, cinnamon stick and violets. The palate is medium-bodied with a chewy frame and lively line supporting the muscular fruit, finishing on an earthy note." Decanter: 89/100 Punkte "A serious tannic structure makes this austere and gripping. It's from 8.3ha of what Moueix describes as dark soil on an iron pan, which translates as clay and sand (Moueix distributes but the estate is owned by the Moreau family). This wine is hard to work your way through at first, but there are gorgeously nuanced, tight cassis notes with liquorice root, floral touches and menthol. The shields are fully up at this stage but give it time, as this is promising and should age well. Drinking Window 2026 – 2038” Wine Enthusiast: 91/100 Punkte "Barrel Sample. This is a ripe yet finely perfumed wine, with gentle tannins and layers of delicious black fruits. There is good balance thanks to ample acidity to counter the full, rich and rounded palate. Ideal for early drinking." James Suckling: 93/100 Punkte "A firm and silky red with blackberry and chocolate character. Medium body, medium tannins and a juicy finish."

  2018 Le Petit Mouton PAUILLAC A.C.

  James Suckling: 97-98/100 Punkte »This is phenomenal with such dense and layered tannins that go on for minutes. It’s full-bodied with blackberries, blueberries and chocolate. Sexy and so beautiful. Not sure what to say here. Maybe it should have gone into the first wine?« Falstaff: 94/100 Punkte »Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarter Wasserrand. Reife Pflaumen, unterlegt mit angenehmer dunkler Beerenfrucht, kandierte Orangenzesten, ein Hauch von Nougat. Saftig, rund und ausgewogen, elegante Textur, feste, integrierte Tannine, bleibt haften, ein stoffiger Speisenbegleiter, zitroniger Touch im Nachhall.«  Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 92-94+/100 Punkte »The 2018 Le Petit Mouton is blended of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, harvested September 10 to October 3. It represents about 26% of the total crop and has 14% alcohol—the alcohol has never been this high! Deep garnet-purple, it comes bounding out of the glass with sit-up-and-beg notes of crème de cassis, plum preserves and mulberries plus nuances of chocolate box, Chinese five spice, licorice and candied violets. Full-bodied, rich and oh-so-hedonic, the palate is packed with juicy black fruit layers wrapped in a firm, velvety structure, with loads of fragrant spice layers on the very long finish.« Decanter: 92/100 Punkte »This is a serious, deep and beautifully enticing wine with plenty of that glossy, glamorous Petit Mouton appeal. Ripe damson in colour, it has more Merlot in the blend than a typical year because only a small amount of the variety made it through to the first wine. The Merlots were however, as you see at many Médoc properties, unusually rich and structured and this feels enveloping and hard to resist. Extraction was slow and careful and the liquorice, chocolate, grilled sarment notes are subtle but pressing. Yields were 28hl/ha whereas a usual year would be closer to 35hl/ha. 26% of overall production, a little less than usual, and 11% press wine. Drinking Window 2024 - 2036«  Wine Spectator: 91-94/100 Punkte  »Fresh and pure, with a mouthwatering edge to the cassis and bitter plum flavors that form the core. A bright iron streak defines the finish. Very focused.« Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.
