dc.description.abstract |
Concerns a request for forty dozen bottles of wine to be sent from France to President George Washington; Jefferson wants William Short to procure the bottles of wine from "M. Dorsay's vineyard at Ay opposite to Epernay in Champagne;" Monsieur Louis was Monsieur Dorsay's "homme d'Affaires" when Jefferson bought the last of Dorsay's wine in 1783; suggests that William Short write to Monsieur Louis; the wine is to be non-sparkling or "non-mousseux"; Jefferson will send the money for the wine shortly; the wine should not ship while the weather is hot; it should arrive in Philadelphia before spring; it will be in bottles; Short should ask for the best wine and if it is good enough Jefferson will order it annually from Dorsay. |
