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.
