2017 Château Brane Cantenac 2. Cru classé Margaux
Wine Spectator: 88-91/100 Punkte "A light singed alder hint leads the way here, along with light bay leaf and savory notes, while the core of gently steeped black cherry and plum fruit fills in slowly. Shows modest intensity through the finish but the flavors knit nicely” James Suckling: 94/100 Punkte "Dark currant, berry and fresh herb character. Full-bodied, juicy and flavorful. Very structured. Solid finish and length. Better than 2014?” Vinous (Neal Martin): 91-93/100 Punkte "The 2017 Brane-Cantenac was picked from 14 September to 2 October at 31.2hl/ha after frost destroyed 35% of the vines in April. It is matured in 75% new oak and 25% one-year old and it has 13% alcohol. It has a tightly wound bouquet with broody black fruit, tar and a touch of graphite, very Pauillac in style as usual. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, very linear and precise, not a deep Margaux and unashamedly classic in style with dry, slightly brusque tannin. The finish is dominated by tobacco and pencil lead notes with healthy pinch of pepper on the aftertaste. Classic Brane-Cantenac through and through. Tasted on three occasions. Trinkreife: 2022-2040" Wine Enthusiast: 91-93/100 Punkte "Barrel Sample. While the wood flavors are palpable in this wine, so are the firm tannins and dense black fruit. These elements suggest a wine that will have power and great concentration while also generous blackberry fruits. Drink from 2024." Decanter: 93/100 Punkte "A lovely wine that sits extremely prettily though the palate, with a seductive expression of florality and blackberry fruits. It´s not as powerful as the past two years, but is skilfully worked with soft grilled oak notes. It doesn´t sacrifice the excellent quality that this estate has been producing."

How to Control Fate through Suggestion , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 119min
After early adventures as a soldier, journalist and lecturer Henry Harrison Brown established himself as a practitioner and teacher of metal healing in 1893. In 1900 he became editor and publisher of NOW magazine in San Francisco which became a popular vehicle for his distinctively muscular presentations of the New Thought philosophy. In the first decade of the 20th century Brown produced a number of tracts, which he categorized as "Lessons in Soul Culture." Much more of an iconoclast and firebrand than the more celebrated New Thought authors, his style and presentation are characteristically brusque and arresting. One of his most startling titles is How to Control Fate Through Suggestion, presented here in a new recording by Denis Daly. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Denis Daly.

Trilby, Hörbuch, Digital, 292min
Arizona, 1910 Dear Diary, It will take more than threats - and one overbearing rancher - to drive me away from my rightful property.... When I inherited this isolated land near the Mexican border, I knew running it would be difficult and dangerous - very different from my privileged life in Louisiana, where I was the genteel Miss Trilby Lang. But I certainly didn't expect that my neighbor, Thorn Vance, would be challenging me at every turn. Or that his brusque, ruggedly appealing ways would prove a dangerous temptation that I'm finding harder and harder to resist. Now, with trouble sweeping the territory, I need his help. But how much will I risk putting myself in the hands of a man who's used to getting exactly what he wants? Language: English. Narrator: Natalie Ross.
