De Dr. Crusius Riesling Kupfergrube GG vertegenwoordigt een meesterlijke uiting van de unieke terroir van de Nahe regio, specifiek de historische Kupfergrube-wijngaard bij Schlossböckelheim. Deze wijngaard, ooit een kopermijn, geniet nu bekendheid door zijn steile, terrasvormige hellingen en de uitdagende melafierbodem. Deze donkere vulkanische steensoort, gecombineerd met de zuidelijke blootstelling en de bescherming van een overhangende rotswand, creëert een microklimaat waarin de Riesling-druiven intens en geconcentreerd rijpen. Op 120-250 meter hoogte vindt de Riesling een perfecte balans tussen zonlicht en koeling, wat resulteert in een wijn die zowel kracht als finesse toont, een kenmerkend handelsmerk van Dr. Crusius.Aromatische Complexiteit en Mineraliteit
De geur van de Dr. Crusius Riesling Kupfergrube GG is een intrigerende mix van rijp fruit en aardse specerijen. Mandarijn en perzik leiden de aromatische ervaring, gevolgd door diepe ondertonen van witte peper en vuursteen die de minerale rijkdom van de bodem reflecteren. Deze complexiteit wordt verder verrijkt door de spontane vergisting in roestvrijstalen tanks, wat de natuurlijke kenmerken van de druif benadrukt en de wijn een authentieke expressie van zijn oorsprong geeft. Het subtiele gebruik van oude eikenhouten vaten voegt een extra dimensie van kruidigheid toe zonder de frisheid van het fruit te overschaduwen, waardoor een boeiend bouquet ontstaat dat uitnodigt tot een diepgaande verkenning van de smaken.Dynamische Smaak en Culinair Potentieel
In de mond onthult de Dr. Crusius Riesling Kupfergrube GG een levendige, kruidige expressie van Riesling die de belofte van de neus waarmaakt. De wijn combineert rijp fruit met een robuuste mineraliteit en kruidige nuances, wat resulteert in een complexe, gelaagde drinkervaring. De verfijnde, frisse zuren zijn perfect in balans met de lange, intrigerende afdronk die een lichte ziltigheid vertoont. Deze structuur maakt de wijn niet alleen een prachtige begeleider van verfijnde gerechten zoals gebakken snoekbaars met een frisse citroen-botersaus, maar stelt hem ook in staat om prachtig te verouderen. Serveer deze Riesling gekoeld op 8-10 °C om zijn volle potentieel te ontsluiten. Met elke slok biedt de Dr. Crusius Riesling Kupfergrube GG een uniek venster op de rijke, vulkanische terroir van Nahe, waarmee het wijnhuis Dr. Crusius eens te meer zijn reputatie als producent van topwijnen bevestigt.Shipping Notes

Spectacular Albeit Unknown History of Race Relations
Format: Hardcover
This is a great piece of historiography about something few know about at all --- slavery in New York City in the 18th century. How about a slave "rebellion" in New York City, how about more people burned at the stake than in the Salem witchcraft trials, how about dark byways and highways of old New York, barely transformed from its days as New Amsterdam, dark plots in dank places, shrill frightened tyrants overreacting with bloody retribution, burned ruins of an early African American village in Central Park?
One cannot make up this stuff, it is too real so it must be history at its best.
And written by one of our premier authors of history, a woman who makes our history live in The New Yorker to the acclaim of many, and yet whose best book, this one, is still too little known.
If you appreciate Harry Truman's remark that the only new thing under the Sun is the history you haven't read, then this is one to curl up with and marvel at; a great way to spend a rainy day or a dark night.

Good, but not great.
Format: Paperback
Kudos to Lepore for delving into an important, little known subject, which she does better than most historians. At times, however, I think she felt the need to put every little piece of information she got into the book. It was way too long. Some good research, but she has done better. Still, worth checking out. I like to think I know American history, but I know nothing about this awful chapter.

DAMN, this is a great book!
Format: Hardcover
All history books should be this detailed, this readable, this humane. Lepore knows how to write about a horrible, nearly forgotten episode in NYC history. Unlike many historians, she steps away from overt politics or raw emotion. She knows that this subject is too serious to be shouted. It is the rare history book that is packed with facts as well as knowledge.
I felt like Lepore was taking my hand and leading me through the smelly streets of lower Manhattan in 1741, like I could almost see the faces of...what were they, anyway? The victims of a horrible hoax? The demented planners of a plot to burn the city? Or something in between, where thieves can also be the keepers of ancient rites from a distant homeland, where the world is turned upside down?
I could go on and on, but just buy the book!

New York Burning
Format: Paperback
.
This is an important book that explores in depth what is usually only found in textbooks as a one-sentence summation:
"In 1741 there was a slave uprising in New York City."
Scholars will probably be happier starting with the Appendix and bibliography and then reading the book. The text is disorganized and uneven, and although this is non-fiction, the characters could have been more finely drawn. Peter Zenger's trail keeps popping up in unexpected places, often disconnected from the action the author is working on. Some sections are heavy on primary documents and period writings, others are more poetic.
Yes, I do understand the parallels with the Salem Witch Trials. The Salem Witch Trials get more press today because of Arthur Miller's "Crucible." Color and religion of the participants aside, both events are stories of group think and mass hysteria, fear and anger. There is plenty of room here for a first-class film or play to be written.
Read this book, learn from it. Expect to complain about it.

What You Didn't Know
Format: Paperback
Did you know that if you were a Catholic Priest on the streets of New York in 1747 that you'd be arrested and hung! Great book if you're interested in the times during which our founding Fathers were growing up. It'll give you a different concept on how slavery was different in NYC as opposed to in the South, and how many of the streets in NYC got there names from English magistrates. If you like history, especially of NYC, you'll love this book.
