Do it! But know you'll need some hardware to crush/destem and press.

 

[oldjenx]

Thanks for bringing it up. A crusher/destemer is available for use at the vineyard for no additional cost to those who buy grapes there.

Are there any that are ready now?

The Foch and Delaware are ready and, of course, already sold. Baco, DeChaunac and Pinot Gris will ripen soon. Some Baco is available. I think the unclaimed prize at this point is Vignoles.
