    2017 Château Lynch-Bages tbd
    Decanter: 95/100 Punkte "They've had their foot on the extraction pedal here, but the extremely dark fruit has great finesse. It is broad-shouldered and savoury-edged, and each time I tasted this wine it seemed a little richer and more complete, over-delivering for the year. This is going to age extremely well. 2% Petit Verdot makes up the blend. 75% new oak. Drinking Window 2025 – 2038” Vinous (Neal Martin): 91-93/100 Punkte „The 2017 Lynch Bages was picked from 18 September with the young Merlot vines and finishing on 30 September. It was cropped at around 50hl/ha. It is aged in 75% new oak for 18 months. It offers good intensity on the nose, not as precise or as mineral-driven as the 2016 last year, with cedar and pencil shaving infusing the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, very refined, a touch of white pepper and cedar with impressive depth on the finish. This will be an approachable Lynch Bages, probably pre-destined to be overshadowed by the magnificent (if nascent) 2016 but it will certainly give 20 to 25 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted four times with consistent notes“ Weinwisser: 18,5/20 Punkte "70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Tiefes Purpurgranat mit schwarzer Mitte und violettem Rand. Ein Konzentrat aus Wildkirsche, schwarzer Olive, reifer Heidelbeere und betörenden Veilchen. Im zweiten Ansatz Cassis und dunkle Edelhölzer. Am muskulösen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur und kräftigem, reifem Tannin-Paket ausgestattet. Im sehr langanhaltenden Finale mit einem Feuerwerk von Schattenmorellen und schwarzen Johannisbeerpastillen. Grandioser Pauillac mit sehr grosser Fangemeinde, auf dem Weg zu höheren Note! 2030-2045"  Wine Spectator: 92-95/100 Punkte  "There's really good flesh here for the vintage, with cassis, plum and blackberry compote flavors that are a step ahead of the pack in concentration. Light charcoal and iron notes score the finish, which is racy and fresh. Textbook Pauillac."  James Suckling: 95/100 Punkte "This is an excellent Lynch that starts off slowly and then drives at the end with dark fruit and hints of hazelnuts. Strong and focused tannins. A beautiful young wine."   Wine Enthusiast: 95/100 Punkte "Barrel Sample. This dense wine is setting out to be fine and rich. It has power and density along with ripe blackberry flavors. Its concentration and dark tannins suggest a long life ahead. Drink from 2024." Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

    2017 La Croix de Beaucaillou tbd
    Robert Parker´s Wine Advocate: 89-91/100 Punkte  "This is not a second wine per se, as it consistently comes from a separate vineyard in Saint-Julien. The blend is usually around 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, but this year it has a high percentage of Merlot: 58%, with 39% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 La Croix de Beaucaillou has quite a spicy nose sporting cloves, anise, black pepper and fenugreek with a core of crushed blackberries and black currants plus wafts of underbrush and potpourri. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, grainy tannins and great freshness supporting the vivacious fruit, finishing long and earthy."  James Suckling: 93/100 Punkte  "This is very fresh and minerally with a salty and oyster shell character. Full body, tight and bright. Plenty of currant flavors too." Decanter: 91/100 Punkte  "The Merlot here is grown on sandy-gravel soils and brings both freshness and structure. There's good balance, plush autumnal berry fruits and lovely spice, supported by well placed, delicate tannins. It's a clear Médoc twist on the varietal, even though this is a little lusher and more approachable than in recent years where Cabernet Sauvignon has been higher in the blend - last year it was at 66%, but vintage conditions in 2017 affected some of the crop. It's a little different in expression from 2016, but is an extremely high quality, great drinking wine. 3.74pH. IPT 75. Drinking Window 2025 – 2038” Wine Spectator: 89-92/100 Punkte "Solid, with a fresh beam of plum, black currant and anise flavors riding along a racy graphite edge. Clear and focused. Not big but a textbook St.-Julien."  Wine Enthusiast: 92-94/100 Punkte "Barrel Sample. This wine, from a dedicated parcel of Ducru-Beaucaillou, is rich and structured with solid tannins. The tannins meld with ripe black plum and berry flavors offering a rich intensity." Vinous (Neal Martin): 90-92/100 Punkte "The 2017 La Croix de Beaucaillou sees 60% new oak for 12 months, with a fairly high IPT of 75. It has a ripe and generous bouquet of blackberry, fresh fig, cedar and crushed violets that blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, that structure making its presence felt towards the finish that exerts an insistent grip. As such, this will probably require three or four years in bottle just to soften the edges“ Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.

    Architectural Structures (eBook, PDF)
    Architectural Structures presents an alternative approach to understanding structural engineering load flow using a visually engaging and three-dimensional format. This book presents a ground-breaking new way of establishing equilibrium in architectural structures using the Modern Müller-Breslau method. While firmly grounded in principles of mechanics, this method does not use traditional algebraic statics, nor does it use classical graphic statics. Rather, it solely uses new geometric tools. Both statically determinate and statically indeterminate structures are analyzed using this graphic method to provide a geometric understanding of how load flows through architectural structures. This book includes approachable coverage of parametric modeling of two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures, as well as more advanced topics such as indeterminate structural analysis and plastic analysis. Hundreds of detailed drawings created by the author are included throughout to aid understanding. Architecture and structural engineering students can employ this novel method by hand sketching, or by programming in parametric design software. A detailed yet approachable guide, Architectural Structures is ideal for students of architecture, construction management, and structural engineering, at all levels. Practitioners will find the method extremely useful for quickly solving load tracing problems in three-dimensional grids.
