Summary:
"Ellen Crosby's third tale of suspense set amid the vines of Virginia
wine
country
involves a two-hundred-year-old bottle of
Bordeaux
that Thomas Jefferson may have purchased for George Washington and is turning out to be a
wine
to die for. It has been a year since Lucie Montgomery took over running her family vineyard at the foothills of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. The
Bordeaux
Betrayal
now sweeps her into a
mystery
that began more than two centuries ago in France and ends in murder not far from Montgomery Estate Vineyard. When author and historian Valerie Beauvais turns up dead the night after a verbal brawl with a noted
wine
critic on the grounds of Mount Vernon, George Washington's home, Lucie is certain Valerie's death is related to something she knew concerning the authenticity of the priceless Washington
Bordeaux
. As Lucie and her eccentric winemaker Quinn Santori bring in the last grapes of the season, Quinn's controversial past becomes intertwined with the murder and the rare
wine
, testing the bonds of their increasingly close relationship. New neighbors challenge Lucie for allowing a century-old hunting club to use her land for foxhunting; Mick Dunne, Lucie's ex-lover, comes back into her life; and her beloved French grandfather makes an unexpected visit that will rekindle painful memories some would prefer to forget. As Lucie investigates the shadowy history of the Washington
wine
, she uncovers a web of deceit and
betrayal
and a long-forgotten scandal that affects not only the international
wine
world but her own as well."--Publisher description.
