Winemaker and wine connoisseur Benjamin Cooker and his assistant Virgile are back solving crimes in “Deadly Tasting 
Consulted by the police, Benjamin Cooker has one job – identify the wine with the hope that it will lead to the killer.
“Deadly Tasting
As always Messieurs Alaux and Balen description of the wines, their vintage and history was impeccable. In fact, I learned so much about wines from the series). And, as if this was not enough, a little bit of history of Bordeaux and how the French wine industry suffered during World War II.
Interspersed in the story are several laughs out loud moments which gave readers a glimpse of the writers’ great sense of humor. And though I appreciate those funny moments, I also got a feeling that those were segued into the story to lighten the mood a bit because of the seriousness of the subject matter in this book.
Again, a great read and a great mystery!
