Zinfandel grapes in Sonoma

Category: Winemaking Resources

I've recently acquired a source for Zinfandel crop this year that caters to the home winemaker. You can "cherry pick" the best fruit by picking it yourself for .75 cents per pound. Since it's Zinfandel, the grower worries about uneven or unripe fruit so he'll let you pick what you want, when you want.

For the home winemaker looking for a new experience dealing with harvest, this is a great opportunity. I'm committing to about 350 pounds which I'm intending to track the growing conditions throughout the year.
