Paserene Marathon 2021

The Paserene Marathon is a wine with character that rightly bears its name: This expressive cuvée of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot comes from the renowned boutique winery Paserene, which is known in South Africa for its terroir-driven, precisely vinified wines with a clear signature. The Marathon combines persistence, intensity and elegance - a powerful red wine that contains the best of the Tulbagh region.The grapes come from low-yielding vines that thrive on weathered slate soil in Tulbagh - an area characterized by hot days and cool nights. In addition, lots from Elgin, the coolest wine region in South Africa, and from Franschhoek are vinified, giving the wine aromatic complexity and fresh structure. Fermentation and ageing are carried out with a particular focus on balance and finesse: The Marathon is fermented in small, upright French oak barrels. To avoid over-extraction, the so-called "punch-down" is carried out by hand. Half of the maturation in oak barrels takes place naturally in order to preserve the origin and pure character of the grape varieties. Before release, the wine rests in the bottle for at least six months, which gives it additional harmony and depth.In the glass, the Marathon has a deep, black-violet hue - a visual harbinger of its concentration. Intense aromas of dark berries, cassis and blackcurrants unfold on the nose, accompanied by floral notes, black pepper and a fine spiciness. On the palate, it impresses with its powerful structure, silky tannins and wonderfully integrated wood spice. The dark fruit, underpinned by balsamic and earthy notes, continues into the long, mineral finish.The Paserene Marathon is an excellent accompaniment to hearty dishes such as grilled lamb with rosemary, game birds or a ribeye steak cooked over an open fire. Matured cheeses such as old Gouda or herb sheep's cheese also harmonize perfectly with its depth. For a special moment of pleasure, a serving temperature of 16-18 °C is recommended.With its long-lasting structure and perfect balance of fruit, tannin and terroir, Marathon is a red wine with great ageing potential - ideal for collectors, connoisseurs and anyone who appreciates wines with personality and expression. An authentic South African blend that can develop magnificently over decades.

Chateau Lilian Ladouys Cru Bourgeois 2018

Das Château hieß bis 1989 nur "Ladouys" und wurde vom Computer-Spezialisten Christian Thiéblot 1989 gekauft, der dem Château den Namen seiner Ehefrau Lilian Ladouys voranstellte.André Kunz beschreibt den Wein anläßlich der Fassprobe wie folgt: "59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot) Würziges, herbes, tiefes Bouquet, schwarze Beeren, Kohle, Edelhölzer, Korinthen, dunkler Tabak. Dichtverwobener, cremiger Gaumen mit kräftiger, süsser Frucht, viel gutem Tannin, muskulöser Struktur, vielfältiger, dunkler Aromatik, langer, aromatischer, herber Abgang".Beachten Sie bitte, dass Weine aus der Appellation Saint Estèphe Langläufer sind, die eine gewisse Zeit benötigen, um sich richtig zu entwickeln. Die Trinkreife dürfte daher etwa 2026 einsetzen.André Kunz: 18/20 Punkte; Suckling: 94/100 Punkte; Jane Anson 93/100 Punkte.
