This fall, I'd like to make a 5 gallon batch of wine. Anyone know a vineyard owner who lets homebrewers pick small amounts for sale (or free!). We're talking like 30-50 lbs only.
 
most vineyards will sell grapes in large amounts but not small talk......good luck.....
 
I made contact with an enology professor at WSU because of my connection there. She put me in contact with a small vineyard/winery in Zillah that sells small quantities. Looking forward to making 5 gallons each of a Cab/merlot blend and a full Zinfandel.

Exciting stuff!
 
nice I did learn that Iowa State University will sell grapes in somewhat small quantities but I dont have the equipment to do real grapes yet so maybe ill have to wait.
 
haha or put plastic bags around your feet I was thinking about doing it that way too.
 
on a side note, i had an enology professor who would make a small batch of wine and kill the fermentation at 8% and make jelly out of it.....mmmm

get your morning off to a good start
 
that sounds like a good project for my montrachet yeast I have laying around....
