Een zeer bijzondere wijn deze witte Sauvignon Blanc van wijnmaker Fons Aaldering. Hij koos voor voor de aanplanting van de Sauvignon Blanc voor een kleine wijngaard van slechts 3,22 hectare in Stellenbosch. Op en hoogte van ongeveer 150 meter boven zee niveau was het klimaat perfect voor een top klasse Sauvignon Blanc die de concurrentie aan moest gaan met bijvoorbeeld een Sancerre. Nou Fons dat is toch wel aardig gelukt vinden wij, inmiddels is de wijngaard 12 jaar oud en geeft hij een prachtige oogst. Zo had hij bedacht, maar hij had nooit gedacht dat het zo verschrikkelijk goed was. Mede door de rijke bodem met veel graniet geeft de ranken en druiven hun eigen stijl en mooie volle geuren en smaken.De oude Sauvignon Blanc wijngaard van Aaldering
De laatste jaren zijn de oogsten van de Sauvignon Blanc nog verder verbeterd en dat is te danken aan de grote inzet van de heer Aaldering. Want met veel aandacht voor de planten behaal je nu eenmaal een mooier resultaat. Vroeg in het seizoen wordt de oogst ingezet met en heel team, zeer vroeg in de ochtend begint men met de handmatige oogst. Elke tros wordt gecontroleerd en in kleine kratjes naar Aaldering gebracht. Daar wachten de trossen een zachte persing en ondergaat deze Sauvignon Blanc een lange rijping in de kelders van Aaldering. Rust en veel finesse zo kunnen we deze witte wijn wel omschrijven en een gedegen concurrent voor een Sancerre.De geur en smaak van de Aaldering Sauvignon Blanc
Stuivend, fris, mineralen en veel emotie dat was het eerst wat we opschreven toen we deze mooie Aaldering Sauvignon Blanc mochten proeven. Een uniek stukje werk want Sauvignon Blanc groeit niet veel in Zuid Afrika. Maar wijnen die ze er van persen zijn vaak uniek, maar voor deze Aaldering Sauvignon Blanc willen we UNIEK in hoofdletters schrijven. Een super mooie frisse Sauvignon Blanc met in de geur hinten van kruisbes, passievrucht, ananas en grapefruit. De smaak van deze Aaldering Sauvignon Blanc is heel maar dan ook heel zuiver. In de smaak hinten van van frisse limoen, kiwi en passievrucht. De duidelijk aanwezige mineraliteit versterkt deze smaken nog eens, vooral vuursteen is zeer herkenbaar aanwezig.Shipping Notes

World War II - The Final Months
Format: Hardcover
The book takes you through the final months of World War II, focusing on eight key moments when the fighting finally came to an end. It’s not just a dry rundown of facts or battle maps — the authors do a great job of bringing the people involved to life, from famous leaders to everyday soldiers and civilians caught in the chaos.
What I really liked was how the story moves around the globe, covering Europe, the Pacific, and beyond. It keeps the narrative fresh and exciting, giving a real sense of how the war unfolded on many fronts at once. Sometimes I had to pay close attention to keep up with all the locations and characters, but that only added to the feeling of being caught up in a fast-moving, gripping story rather than a history lesson.
What stood out most was how it made me feel the human side of history—the fear, the relief, and the confusion as the war finally ended. It’s full of details, but it never felt boring or too technical.

The Fix
Format: Hardcover
An insightful and interesting book on how our country's first legislators try to make sense of the new and fairly short U.S. Constitution, which, being drafted by humans, was bound to be imperfect. A lack of clarity on some point might be due to the changeable nature of words themselves or to confusion or obscurity of thought by the authors. And, who were the authors? The men in the room who came up with the product or the various state conventions that approved the final product?
Professor Gienapp writes well and with a fine grasp of his subject. He uses concrete examples to illustrate his main points. For example, Congressional debates over the constitutionality of a proposed federal bank, the ratification of Jay's Treaty, and even whether the Bill of Rights was to be incorporated into or simply added to the original document.
Most people think of U.S. constitutional history in terms of its drafting and ratification and/or its later judicial interpretation by the Supreme Court. Here, Professor Gienapp focuses on the initial work of interpretation by the first few sessions of Congress.
This book is essential reading for those interested in the U.S. Constitution and the internal architecture of our government. I think those who spend countless hours viewing frenetic talking heads say this or that about the constitutionality of some issue or another (or the nomination of a justice to the High Court) should throw their television set out the window and, instead, settle into a corner chair and calmly read this and other such thoughtful books.
This one should win prizes.

Excellent Book
Format: Hardcover
Stanford University History Professor Gienapp has done an outstanding job of researching and writing this historical analysis of the interpretation of the American Constitution by America's first Congress. Professor Gienapp analyzes data primarily from Congress's problems interpreting the removable of executive officers, chartering a national bank and approval of the 1794 Treaty with Great Britain negotiated by Chief Justice John Jay, the "Jay Treaty." Gienapp shows in clear writing how Congress used records of the debates at the Constitutional Convention and State Ratification Conventions to resolve these constitutional issues. I highly recommend this book to anyone concerned with the interpretation of the American Constitution.
