I'm a home winemaker in Southeastern Pennsylvania looking for a source of
small quantities of local wine grapes. Last year, I was able to purchase grapes
as well as juice and skins from Vigna Del Monte in Exton PA, but this year I haven't
been able to make contact.
I would like to make 15 to 20 gallons of red wine, so I'm looking for 225 to
300 lbsof fresh grapes (or equivalent in juice and skins). I would be interested in
french/american hybrids such as Chambourcin or Chancellor, or viniferas like
cabernet franc and/or cabernet sauvignon.
I'm willing to drive up to 2 or 3 hours from the Philadelphia area, so if anyone knows
of a vineyard or other source of grapes in the area, I would really appreciate it if
you would let me know so I could get my order in!
Thank you! Jon Gilliam
