My wife and I were so impressed with the wines that we purchased a case and had it sent to our home in California.

We have just sustained some extensive fruit losses to this last weekend's freeze. I think we will have enough fruit from secondary buds for a normal crush for our winery, but I don't think we will have any extra fruit to sell other wineries or home winemakers for 2007. Considering we sold about 150 tons last year to others, it is still a considerable hit, financially.David Harriswww.bsvw.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263127214008368839.post-30254114466592190932007-04-11T12:39:00.000-04:002007-04-11T12:39:00.000-04:00Blackstock sells to home winemakers in 100lb increments.
