One of my customers has more Cab. Sauv. grapes than he can use. They are free to the first to pick them. He is in the Tyler area and if you are interested, call me at the store. 1-866-417-1114

After I made the post, I found out that about 50% of the grapes in each bunch are good, while the remainder arenot, so you will have to cull out the bad fruit. I also found out the brix is only about 10%. Not sure how good the wine will be without some serious adjustments. Edited by: geocorn

Dang, glad you couldn't get free now George

 

[grapeman]

It sounds like maybe he had more fruit hanging than he wnated to keep, so he wanted someone to come in and do some cluster thinning. I don't know anybody that would harvest a vinifera grape at 10 brix. Again, I guess you get what you pay for!

George,
Send Mark out to pick some and use them as packing material instead of those electrostatically charged styrofoam peanuts. That way as the merchandise bounces around in the Fed Ex truck it will mash the grapes and I'll have juice to use.
