Book Description
"We could in the United States make as great a variety of wines as are made in Europe, not exactly of the same kinds, but doubtless as good." So said Thomas Jefferson in a letter to a friend in 1808. Just over 200 year later, Thomas Jefferson's Viticultural Vision has taken hold in the Blue Ridge Mountains that surround his mountain top home of Monticello. Join the expert Wine Trail Guides of Blue Ridge Wine Excursions as they take you on a personal tour of the Monticello and Appellation Wine Trails that surround gorgeous Charlottesville, Virginia! Meet the figures and artisans behind the exploding regional wine industry, and learn more about the unique challenges facing those who chose to make wine in Virginia's Piedmont.
