Grand Cru Heist (The Winemaker Detective Series Book 2)
Grand Cru Heist
A Perfect Blend of Mystery & Gastronomy
A journey through French countryside with gourmet attitude and wine-loving amateur sleuths. A French-style cozy culinary mystery series
Jean-Pierre Alaux and Noël Balen, wine lover and music lover respectively, came up with the idea for the Winemaker Detective series while sharing a meal, with a bottle of Château Gaudou 1996, a red wine from Cahors with smooth tannins and a balanced nose.
The popular series was adapted to television in France.
