Book synopsis

This is a superbly written and fascinating look at the life and time of Thomas Jefferson - through his lifelong passion for wine. Available in paperback for the first time, "Thomas Jefferson on Wine" presents an intriguing look at the USA founding father's lifelong passion for wine. Written by an international wine judge and columnist, this volume discusses how Jefferson's tastes developed - from his student days at Williamsburg to his lengthy retirement at Monticello - which wines and foods he preferred at different stages of his life, and how he became the greatest wine expert of the early American republic, frequently citing Jefferson's own words from some the hundreds of immensely readable and surprisingly modern-style letters he wrote on the subject. It is an absorbing volume for anyone who loves a good read with a great glass of wine!
