This is a special Pinot. Vintage in and vintage out, it is the epitome of silky and stylish. Ripe red fruit, red florals on the nose, gorgeous purity of fruit. This, along with Cristom's Mt. Jefferson are the benchmarks for entry-level Pinots from phenomenal Pinot producers. — 7 years ago
Really good. I might manage a coherent rating after we stop yelling at the cat for spilling a glass of it all over the rug. This is why our rugs are red. — 7 years ago
Wonderful Virginia Wine!! — 8 years ago
Great acidity, fruity like you'd expect from an Italian. Even better is the history of this vineyard and particularly Philip Mazzei - a close friend of Thomas Jefferson whose writings Jefferson paraphrased into "All men are created equal." — 9 years ago

Young but very good. I am finding that Pommard may be my favorite price to quality village in Burgundy. Thomas Jefferson may have been on to something. — 9 years ago
"...high flavoured wines a necessary of life with me." - Thomas Jefferson writing to a friend in 1816. Indeed Mr. President, indeed! The most perfect Paulliac I've had the pleasure of enjoying yet - sublime and just perfect. Bold, and inviting - no wonder it's behind the locked glass at Total Wine! — 9 years ago
Dining with Jefferson. Peach, nutty perfumes of almond and clean water kissed stone. Sweet on the palette, but completely dry. Crisp acidic sting and a rich mouthfeel. Delightful! — 10 years ago
This is an outstanding Napa cab at a very reasonable price. It is toward the full-bodied side with wonderful layers of black cherry, with a hint of caramel and toffee. If you're familiar with the Monticello Jefferson Cuvée, this is quite comparable and every bit as good. — 7 years ago
Fantastic! $80 bottle the Jefferson Washington DC — 7 years ago
"Good wine is a necessity of life for me" - Thomas Jefferson. Golden nectar 🍯🤓 — 7 years ago
We'll call this a "Waiting Out the Rain" wine. Great minerality, medium body, hint of pear, floral nose. Pairs great with the yet-to-be-released St. Paul & the Broken Bones album on a screened in porch. My boy Thomas Jefferson would be proud of this one--a great Virginia white. — 8 years ago
Discovered this bottle at the Jefferson. Hunted it down so I could have a few bottles to myself. — 8 years ago
