"Thomas Jefferson’s
salary was $25,000 per year - a princely
sum, but the expenses were also great.
In 1801 Jefferson spent $6,500 for provisions
and groceries, $2,700 for servants (some
of whom were liveried), $500 for Lewis’s
salary, and $3,000 for wine."
Wine
IQ: What is
the ideal temperature for wine?
Whites: chilled
(45-55 degrees F) for a few hours in the
refrigerator.
Reds: slightly cooler than room
temperature (about 65 degrees); Younger
fruity reds benefit from chilling.
Sparkling Wine: thoroughly chilled;
refrigerate several hours or the night
before serving.
Dessert Wine: room temperature.
Facts:
Grapes & Volume
1 grape cluster
= 1 glass
75 grapes = 1 cluster
4 clusters = 1 bottle
40 clusters = 1 vine
1 vine = 10 bottles
1200 clusters = 1 barrel
1 barrel = 60 gallons
60 gallons = 25 cases
30 vines = 1 barrel
400 vines = 1 acre
1 acre = 5 tons
5 tons = 332 cases
