Sterling Publishing Wine Education Beyond Jefferson’s Vines

For 30 years, Thomas Jefferson grew grapes in his Monticello vineyards in hopes of producing fine wine –but to no avail. Today that has completely changed. Virginia wine now has a reputation as some of the best in America, with increasing sales and more wineries (nearly 200) welcoming an ever-larger number of visitors. Richard Leahy, a former editor for Vineyard & Winery Management magazine, has written the essential book on Virginia wine, covering its history, interviews with the state’s top winemakers, and updates on the latest industry developments.
