Château Duhart-Milon 1998
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the latest season of CSI Miami is getting totally preposterous? David Caruso as Lieutenant Horatio Caine was, after all, one of the coolest police officers on TV. But the other night, with less than four minutes until a bomb destroyed a car in his compound, he calmly sat in it, then drove it down a 40 mile freeway, across two bridges, through a set of traffic lights, past numerous residences and deposited it on a beach (thankfully free of sunbathers) and coolly walked away from the car as it exploded in the background. Puh-lease! I’m going to stick to the vintage episodes when, for me, Caine was the perfect successor to the dysfunctional Las Vegas based Grissom, who himself was getting a bit preposterous.
Whilst on the topic of vintages, I found occasion to open a bottle I’ve been keeping for a few years.
