Description of A Taste of Wine and Murder

This is a murder mystery party for 6-8 guests. They give you the scripts, clues, and party planning guide so it's pretty easy to follow. This particular story line is about a California vineyard reunion that is interrupted by the discovery of a body. It's a great time! Highly recommended!

We had a large group of about 25 that attended this murder mystery. We had a dinner and most brought a bottle of wine to keep with the theme of the murder mystery. The rest of the guest would ask questions of the actors between sets to figure out who the murderer was. The actors dressed according to their character, which really helped with the play. After all was done, everyone guessed who they thought the murderer was and it was really a mixed bag of guesses. We had a great time and would highly recommend this to any group for a fun evening.

You buy boxed wine, remove bag from box and put into menu baggy wine coat. When it is empty, you throw empty bag away, buy a new wine box and start all over! AWESOME. I GOT BLACK SO NOT TO DRAW ATTENTION.

If I remember correctly, each participant is given a list of things that they know. Some of them are things that they are encouraged to share, and others are things that they're trying to hide. The best murder mystery parties I have attended were full of people who had a flair for acting and improv.

At some point yes Some wines are heavier with remnants of fruit & sugars and will eventually plug screen

Yes, it is. BTW, I received a replacement case and it tasted terrific. I think there must have been a rough lot set out.

Any wine that comes in and bottle works equally well - provided your guests find the taste to their liking. PLEASE NOTE: This product is not a ''game'' in the sense that there are winners or losers. The sole purpose is to let guests taste several different wines and to give them the ''tools'' to understand the different flavors and charicteristics of particular wines. We found that blends work just as well as single grape varietals in this regard. You may also want to taste less well known grapes from Chile, Argentina, Uraguay or South Africa. You and your guests may well find a great tasting wine at a bargain price in doing this. Wines become expensive when a great tasting wine becomes well known... wines that are not well known can taste just as good (or better) and are available for a fraction of the cost. In our area, we have a well-known winery that makes a great Cab-Merlot-Cab Franc blend that sells for about $60 per bottle. The winery that is adjacent to their property makes the same blend and sells it at Trader Joes for $8.99 a bottle. And, in a blind test - I would challenge anyone to tell any difference between the two!

Must be decoration. Basically, the shot fills the skull shape from the top. Its all just clear glass. The features of the skull show up when it is full. Its pretty cool, especially with a skull-shaped decanter to go with it!

I do not know if my comment reached you. I just tried to remove a lower shell and I could not. Another issue could be that the air that is circulated may suffer with the positionong of the bottles. Sorry, i did not finish my coment. On the other side. Of the river, Pouilly Fume is made, also an exceptional wine. They ate about $22/bottle.

They plenty large enough for a taste, but not the way wine should be tasted. Good wines should be tasted in a glass that has a large size and shape like a brandy snifter so the wine can be swished around to smell the vapors before the wine even hits your mouth. Sorry! These would not be recommended.

The device has setting which will automatically shut off the chiller at a specified time based on which type of wine selected. Generally between 20-45 minutes roughly

There may be a slight germ-killing effect from the alcohol, but I suspect it's mostly a matter of personal preference or need (for those who need to avoid alcohol).

I have not used it yet but I can tell you it comes with instructions, 10 Tasting Tip sheets as to types of wines and flavors, a large pad of Tasting Note sheets, 10 bags to hold wine so you can't see the types, large amt of discs to place on base of glass so guest will know their glass, 10 pencils. If you do this with ordinary wine drinkers I would not spend more than 8.00-14.00 for each bottle. It is more of a blind testing. I am looking forward to having a party, I think it will be great fun. I think it was well worth the price and presents itself as a fund evening.

Yes, it can be played with just a few wines, but can also be played with up to 10 wines. Sometimes I enjoy playing with a smaller group and fewer wines to really enjoy and understand the flavors in just a few wines!

Yes. This is a scripted game. In some games, even the murderer doesn't know they are guilty until the last round. In the Mardi Gras mystery, the killer is revealed to that character (privately, in the script booklet) and they must spend the entire game trying to cast suspicion in other directions. This can be fun, but, in the end when everyone guesses who the murderer is, this person already knows. This twist did NOT keep us from having fun, though. And since you play the game one time and know who the murderer will always be, you have the opportunity to invite another group of friends over and give them the fun experience of being a detective.
