    2018 Château Haut-Brion 2018 Ch. Haut-Brion Pessac-Leognan 6HK
    Weinwisser: 20/20 »49,4 % Merlot, 11,9 % Cabernet Franc, 38,7 %, 14,6 % Cabernet Sauvignon, Lese zwischen dem 6. September und 2. Oktober. Dichtes, sattes Granat mit nur wenig Rand und violetten Reflexen. Ungemein komplexes, schier tief und weit gestaffeltes Bouquet, als hätte der Wein eine dreidimensionale Ebene: Schwaden von blau- und schwarzbeeriger Frucht, perfekt reife Heidel- und Brombeeren, Cassiswürze und Veilchen ohne Ende, dahinter ein Hauch feinste Vanilleschoten, Graphit und dunkle Schokolade. Am kräftigen und reichhaltigen Gaumen mit saftig-intensiver Attacke, die durchtrainierten Muskeln werden durch eine durchweg seidige Textur und festes Tanningerüst austariert, dessen Qualität zu den besten aller verkosteten Weine gehört. Perfekt konturiert, sehr vielschichtig, dabei mit klirrender Frische gepaart mit betörendem Fruchtdruck und edler Mineralik ausgestattet. Im aromatischen, langen Finale verführt er mit einer Symbiose aus blauen Beeren, Graphit und salzigen Anklängen. Perfektion pur – dafür kann es nur die Höchstwertung geben! Offenbar hatte man hier wenig Probleme mit Mehltau. Trinken 2030 bis 2058« James Suckling: 98-99/100 Punkte »The length and texture to this wine is so very impressive. It’s not so much the sheer power that is impressive here, rather the form, tension and exquisite form that the abundant, fine-grained tannins provide. It lasts for minutes on the palate. A classic beauty in the making.« Decanter: 98/100 Punkte  »A beautiful Haut-Brion that combines generosity and elegance. It's rich, and velvety, with a vibrant ruby rim, all conveying structure and a sense of power. The flavour floods in through the mid-palate, displaying wonderfully vibrant blackberry, blueberry, slate, touches of blond tobacco, freshly cut herbs and exotic spicing. You can feel in the texture that it's a warm year, not holding back. It's powerful but elegant and unforced at the same time, with some brambled edges that give a welcome sense of acidity and a touch of bitterness. Harvested 6 September to 2 October, yielding 44hl/ha. 3.8pH. IPT72 - the same level as 2015, but it was a little higher in 2010 and 2009. Drinking Window 2027 - 2044« Falstaff: 98/100 Punkte »Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarter Wasserrand. Etwas zurückhaltend, feines dunkles Waldbeerkonfit, dezente Kräuterwürze, Nuancen von Kirschen, etwas Nougat, dezenter Edelholztouch unterlegt. Straff, engmaschig, feine süße Kirschfrucht, würzige, präsente Tannine, die noch etwas spröde wirken, sehr lebendiger Stil, salzige Mineralität im Abgang, Nougat im Rückgeschmack.« Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 97-99+/100 Punkte »The 2018 Haut-Brion is a blend of 49.4% Merlot, 38.7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11.9% Cabernet Franc, harvested September 6 to October 2. Deep purple-black in color, it is much more closed than the La Mission. It holds back for the first few minutes, reticent to reveal what slowly uncoils to give wave after wave of exotic spices—cardamom, cassis, star anise and fenugreek—over an opulent core of red roses, Black Forest cake, warm cassis and black raspberries with nuances of cigar box, crushed rocks, truffles, tilled black soil, iron ore and smoked meats. The full-bodied palate is truly profound, with restrained black fruit and spice layers slowly offering mineral sparks and savory suggestions within a rock-solid frame of firm, super fine-grained tannins and beautiful freshness, finishing with epic length and depth. This will take longer to come around than the La Mission, but it will be well worth the wait.« Wine Enthusiast: 96-98/100 Punkte »Barrel Sample. This wine has an immense structure that's powered by tannins, yet backed by a dry core and bright acidity. The black currant flavor is very fine and concentrated while also having a juicy freshness that marks the vintage. It has all the structure that should be expected from this estate.« Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

    Unforced Error: A Rep and Melissa Pennyworth Mystery, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 374min
    Rep and Melissa Pennyworth attend a reenactment of a Civil War battle in Missouri while seeking a case for attorney Rep - and find a corpse instead. Melissa’s friend, Linda Damon, was emotionally involved with the victim before his death, and Linda’s husband, Peter, had motive, opportunity, and a Civil War saber that is drenched in the victim’s blood. Logically, this is a job for the police, but when Rep and Melissa are involved, logic is seldom a reliable guide, and their contribution ends up being essential to solving the crime. ungekürzt.

She rekindled her damaged relationship with her brother, whom she hadn't spoken to in a year, and her brother's best friend was attractive and interesting. Their relationship was natural and unforced, and she was immediately drawn to him.

    Through the Lens, Book 5: Bailey's Stardust: National Portrait Gallery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 7min
    Several hundred photographs of varying scales, and most of them newly printed gelatin silver prints, in superb tones of greys, blacks, and whites, take us into a world that has been subliminally familiar to us for nearly 50 years. Stardust is the title given to this self-selected retrospective, three years in the making, the photographer his own curator, and the word neatly encapsulates the fascinating conundrum of photography itself. As Bailey himself puts it, "It's not the camera that takes the picture, it's the person," and these photographs are as much about Bailey as his subject - his terrific insouciance, his seemingly natural, unforced, spontaneous eye, his alert rapidity when working. His is the stardust, for he makes his subjects - from the tribesmen of Nagaland, aborigines, and the ornamented peoples of Papua New Guinea, the models for Vogue, the politicians, entertainers, writers and artists - stars. Some can even appear strikingly unfamiliar: the boyish Damon Albarn is anguished. The spectrum from Mick Jagger's masculinity to his androgyny, and even prettiness, framed by a fur hood, is strikingly portrayed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dana Brewer Harris.

    The Best of Car Talk (USA), A Series of Unforced Errors, August 12, 2019, Hörbuch, Digital, 54min
    This week on The Best of Car Talk, Marc bought a used Peugeot for $100, and, believe it or not, that wasn't his worst mistake.
