NYC Grapes/Grape juice for home brewing

[negronifan123]

Hi there! I'm new to the home winemaking world and am looking for a source for about 20 lbs of wine grapes/juice in NYC. Have you all had any luck getting supplies this time of year? or would it be better to switch to cider and wait till the next season. Thanks in advance!

This late in the season it's unlikely you'll find fresh grapes. Check with Musto in Hartford CT or Gino Pinto in NJ.

Frozen must buckets are available from several sources -- folks who buy them may chime in with recommendations.

Another option is is kits -- look at the Finer Wine Kits at labelpeelers.com

Welcome to WMT!

I agree with @winemaker81 's comments. I have had good results from Wine Grapes Direct (although shipping is a killer).

Try lapide wine and juice or tp&s wine grapes. Both are at Brooklyn terminal market
