I don't know if the grapes are being used to make wine yet, though. I have no idea how old a vine needs to be before the grapes are suitable to use.

New Vines
This section of vineyard was just field of wildflowers five years ago when we arrived here. Then, one day in 2004, the vineyard owner plowed it up and planted about twelve rows of tiny grape vines. Now they're starting to look good, and they're even producing.

So much work in the making; so much enjoyment in the drinking. Nice to know I'm helping by buying the finished product. That's the part I like to play!
