A friend turned me onto Barboursville a long time ago. The vines for the estate were originally brought to the US from Italy by the Mazzei Family - friends of Thomas Jefferson - who at the time knew Governor Barbour very well. There's lots of history to this estate and it's a great story. <br /><br />I have a few bottles left and one of their Octagon which I'm looking forward to trying.
