More Information
Thomas Jefferson was a man of many varied interests. Join us at the house he deemed “the best dwelling house in the state” as we delve into topics he found particularly fascinating: from the arts to agriculture, literature to wine, philosophy to natural sciences, and more. Each talk in the series includes a wine and cheese reception following the presentation. Tickets are $25/each per talk.
Christine Vrooman of Ankida Ridge Winery joins Poplar Forest to discuss one of Jefferson’s most famous passions: wine. Enjoy a discussion of Jefferson’s wine preferences and how they changed throughout his life, his attempts to begin the Virginia wine industry, and learn about the state’s industry today. Following the talk will be a wine and cheese reception.
