Want to learn more about Virginia wines? Have you ever wondered why Thomas Jefferson never achieved his dream of producing world-class wines, yet today there are over 140 wineries operating in the Commonwealth? I recently had the privilege of co-hosting an in-depth audio podcast for graperadio.com, focusing on Virginia wines and winemaking, that shed light on these and many more questions. Ted Burns, graperadio.com's East Coast correspondent, and I interviewed two Virginia winemakers, a viticulture professor at Virginia Tech, and a Charlottesville-based wine writer who specializes in Virginia wines. They provided illuminating perspectives on the struggles as well as successes in Virginia winemaking. Just click on the link, below, and enjoy the show!
