Anyone Selling Catawba Grapes or Juice?

Hi John,

I am curious here. Why?

I am in Utah, and have one vine of Catawba grapes growing in my backyard. I have a bit of a problem getting grapes from it. (The problem is called a couple of MAGPIES that live in my backyard. They think the grapes are for them!)

However, if these grapes could be used for something, I might be able to figure some sort of netting out or something next year.

Not really sure if one vine of grapes would be enough to do anything with or not?

This is a fairly mature vine, I planted it 15 years ago or so.

Roland,

Catawba Rose' is my wife's favorite wine that is made in Indiana at some of the local commercial wineries. She asked me to try to make it, but I am having difficulties in locating juice or grapes for sale around here.

You might try Walker's Fruit Basket. They sell hot-pressed grape juice by the pail. I believe they can ship. I've personally not bought this, but was thinking of doing the same, getting saw Catawba juice to try and make a catawba wine. Their price last year was $28.75 for a 5 gallon pail.

Regards, Van
