Crisp, short, and sweet. Kind of like your favorite detective novel, you get to try it and figure out the mystery and then move on feeling better about life. — 3 years ago
2001 Red Car “The Dreaming Detective” California Red Wine. “Unable to crack a tough case, the detective dreamed he fell out of a high window. He floated past a string of pearls, a jigsaw puzzle, a glass key. He drifted past a woman whose hair was ablaze with red rosebuds. She smiled, handed him a cracked mirror and said “pay attention to what you don’t see.” The next day he went to the crime scene and found the missing clue. He never told anyone about the dream.” I seem to recall that there were a series of these, but this chapter was hiding all by it’s lonesome in the back of the cellar. If anyone has the rest of the story, please report. The wine itself is pretty darn tasty. Glass staining garnet hues with some long legs. A nose of fresh baked cherry pie. On the palate, more cherries, nutmeg and some toasty oak. Decent finish. Pretty darn tasty actually, and a nice start to a long Holiday weekend. My guess is that there will be a few more bottles. — 7 years ago
100% Languedoc Cinsault Rose’. Fruit forward aromas and flavors of red berries, red apple skin, orange zest and rhubarb. A touch of RS, which is balanced by a slight sour note on the finish. Crisp and light. Not tremendously complex, but very drinkable. Excellent QPR. — a year ago
Had to do some hard detective work to pair this bottle to the label in the cellar.
The wine is pure seduction. Heady floral and honey notes, a commandingly deep tartness. Lots of phenolic spice, dry extract, and an incisive depth. Of the full and powerful style rather than ethereal. This is drinking well now, feinherb like, but I think if the RS and acids had another ten years to mesh it would be something else. — 3 years ago
When a man's partner is killed, he's supposed to do something about it. It doesn't make any difference what you thought of him. He was your partner and you're supposed to do something about it. And it happens we're in the detective business. Well, when one of your organization gets killed, it's-it's bad business to let the killer get away with it, bad all around, bad for every detective everywhere. — 9 years ago
