I've been buying juice from them for about 4 years. They also have grapes.

Do they have stock year round or just during the harvest? Anything you can recommend or recommend to avoid from them? Have you made any reds from their juice? I've not been happy with my reds from kits and I fear that reds from juice without the skins might suffer. What are their prices like?

I've bought many of their reds and have been satisfied. It's Regina juice. I won a 2nd place in the Valley Vinyard's

amature winemaking contest with a

2000 Cab. They usually bring in the juice and grapes near the end of Sep and what juice doesn't sell, they keep in storage and sell throughout the year. Prices? I can't remember, but it seems it's from 30-50 per 5-gal pail. If call you can get on their email list and they will get you a price list when they have it.

Until I can find a local source near me (I live just north of Cincy) they are the best I have found.
