  2016 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2. Grand Cru Classé Pauillac A.C.

  Weinwisser: 20/20 Punkte  “… (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 40 hl/ha) Frisches, elegantes, feingliedriges, dichtes, komplexes Bouquet, Heidelbeeren, schwarzer Cassis, Korinthen, fein Lakritze, Minze, Pralinen. Ausgewogener, dichtverwobener, eleganter, frischer Gaumen mit dichter, feiner Frucht, viel feinem Tannin, fein cremiger, zart muskulöser Struktur, dichter, vielfältiger Aromatik, sehr langer, duftiger, kräftiger Abgang mit vielen Rückaromen. Kann noch zulegen. Vom Trinkspass könnte es der Nachfolger vom 1982er sein, aber mit mehr Dichte und mehr Konzentration.“ Robert Parker´s Wine Advocate: 98+/100 Punkte  "The 2016 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is blended of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc aged for 18 months in 60% new oak. Deep purple-black in color, it is a little mute, slowly unfurling to reveal a core of crushed blackcurrants, blueberry compote and black raspberries with nuances of cinnamon stick, violets, star anise, menthol and pencil shavings plus a waft of fallen leaves. Medium-bodied and super intense in the mouth, the palate bursts with black fruits and savory layers, complemented by red fruit sparks and framed by fantastically ripe, fine-grained tannins, finishing very long with a lingering suggestion of minerality."  Trinkgenuss: 2023 bis 2058 Decanter: 98/100 Punkte "Cabernet dominant, it's very Pauillac in style and totally lives up to its en primeur promise. The tannins deepen and tighten and here we are, smack-bang in the northern Médoc. This is youthful, rich, powerful and intense; very good quality. It gets better and better as you return to it, and I'm really impressed with the texture and depth of the silky-smooth palate: pure cassis notes alongside hawthorn, hedgerow and liquorice. Matured in 60% new oak." Trinkgenuss: 2026 bis 2045 James Suckling: 98/100 Punkte  "Glorious aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries and flowers, from violets to roses. Iron and rust undertones. Full-bodied, dense and very layered with loads of richness. It goes on for minutes. Reminds me of the 1986. Best in decades? Take a first look at it in 2025."  Antonio Galloni vinous: 97-100/100 Punkte  "A deeply emotional, moving wine, the 2016 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is simply extraordinary. The tannins are nearly buried by the sheer intensity of the fruit, while the 100% new oak is remarkably well integrated at this stage. Dark, powerful and brooding, the 2016 possesses remarkable polish for such a big wine. The purity of the flavors is simply captivating. Scents of graphite, smoke, leather, tobacco and menthol soar from the glass, enhancing a core of deep, plush, dark fruit. All the elements fuse together in a wine of nearly unparalleled beauty. Although not inexpensive, Pichon-Lalande is arguably the single finest relative value in ageworthy wine in Bordeaux right now. Readers should do whatever they can to pick up the 2016. It is without question one of the wines of the vintage and potentially a legendary wine in the making. Tasted three wines." Wine Spectator: 97/100 Punkte  "Saturated with dark currant, fig and blackberry compote flavors, this has a fleshy, nearly glycerin feel at first before stretching out to reveal singed cedar, tobacco leaf, dark earth and cassis bush flavors. A terrific tug of cast iron emerges at the very end. Deliciously juicy dark fruit keeps rolling throughout." Trinkgenuss: 2025 bis 2040 Wine Enthusiast: 96-98/100 Punkte "Dense tannins and dark fruits are just a part of this wine's complex character. It is ripe, full of blackberries, yet solid, with a structure that balances the fruit. It should age extremely well; be ready be prepared to hold this for 15 years or more."

  Dawn of the Dead

  Arguably, excess is at the heart of Dawn of the Dead, integral to its meaning: not only in its scenes of gore, its in-your-face social satire and its gaudy pop-kitsch style but in the production history of the film itself.

  Aid and Influence

  This book turns the argument about aid effectiveness on its head. Since development assistance is inherently self-interested, a source of soft power, political manipulation and commercial opportunity, its real effectiveness could arguably be judged by the strength of donor influence and not by development impact.

• Aemilia Lanyer as Shakespeare's Co-Author

  This book presents original material which indicates that Aemilia Lanyer - female writer, feminist, and Shakespeare contemporary - is Shakespeare's hidden and arguably most significant co-author. Once dismissed as the mere paramour of Shakespeare's patron, Lord Hunsdon, she is demonstrated to be a most articulate forerunner of #MeToo fury.
