CH CHASSE SPLEEN 2009 75CL

Description and Reviews: Chasse-Spleen made a good, elegant 1978. Displaying a generous, intense, smoky, blackcurrant bouquet, and chewy, medium-bodied flavours, it has a surprisingly long, spicy, soft finish.

Description of this Moulis With a name evoking rapture and joy, it is hardly surprising that Chasse-Spleen provokes similar sensations with its wine. The vineyard is planted on an outcrop of gravel, clay and limestone not far from the château with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot grapes. Displaying a purple colour, the 1996 has a typical nose of Cabernet Sauvignon. Concentrated, tannic, this is a great classic.

Bordeaux is France's largest quality wine region, indeed producing almost as much wine as Australia. Its westerly position ensures a mild maritime climate, a long growing season and mild summers; rains in the autumn are the primary threat to the harvest, dampening expectations in around one year in three. Red wine predominates - indeed many white wine vines are being uprooted today - with Merlot the dominant variety. The region is dissected by the Gironde estuary, with on the Left Bank the district...

Description and Reviews: 85-87 Points - Wine Journal. reviews: "The bright garnet/ruby core with a brick red rim. The nose is quite intense: lead-pencil, cassis and cedar. Very Pauillac in style. The palate has moderate concentration, firm, and slightly coarse tannins with an attractive core of rustic, black, dusty fruit. Lacks a bit of harmony but it is not austere like many other wines from this vintage. Simple with moderate length. Drink now." Neil Martin Wine Journal.

Description and Reviews: Bouquet of cigar-box, kirsch and sweet liquorice along with some volatility. The palate is quite high-toned, peppery with well-integrated tannins. Quite focused and harmonious on the finish. A good 82!

Description of this Moulis Chasse-Spleen 1995 is a lyrical wine that strings together stanza after stanza with the greatest of ease. Its rhymes are rich and masculine, in an ode to red fruit, a rondel of spices, a ballad of toasted wood. The Villars family have every right to be proud of such poetry hailing from their vineyard. The oracle of bourgeois growths for many years, it promises a radiant future.

Maria Scott's study of the operation of irony in Baudelaire's Le Spleen de Paris contends that the principal target of the collection's spleen is its own readership. Baudelaire, as one of the most perceptive cultural commentators of the nineteenth century, was naturally very keenly aware of the growing dominance of the bourgeoisie in France, not least as a market for art and literature. Despite being dependent on this market for his own writing, the poet was highly critical of bourgeois values and...

Baudelaire’s prose poems were written over many years and published in magazines between 1855 and his death in 1867. Francis Scarfe’s translations reflect a lifetime’s passion for Baudelaire’s work and a deep understanding of it. The appeal of 'this beautiful book’, he says in his introduction, 'lies in its wide range of subjects, its variations of tone and mood, its great variety of presentation and above all in its psychological subtleties. It shows the poet at the height of his powers, totally...

The ‘Tableaux parisiens’ section of Les Fleurs du ma l has worn better than the volume’s many poems of doomed or vampiric love. The urban consciousness developed in this section also dominates a number of the wonderful prose poems Baudelaire began writing in the second half of the 1850s, and which he sold – sometimes twice over – to various newspapers and fugitive magazines. He intended to collect these into a volume to be called Petits poèmes en prose, but it never appeared in his lifetime, probably...

Details This volume examines the exploitation of the faunal diversity during the Holocene in the Horn of Africa, especially in the arid plain of Gobaad in Djibouti and in the mountainous region of Wolayta in Ethiopia. For that purpose, the author has studied faunal collections (more than 70 000 remains and 34 species) from five archaeological sites occupied from the 5th millennium BC to the 1st millennium AD. Both these regions offer very different natural environments, in which the presence of...
