All grapes come in 36 pound lugs. It is recommended that 1 lug be used to yield 2 Gallons of finished wine. Therefore, 3 lugs are needed to yield a 6 gallon batch.

Fresh California Grapes come in 36 # lugs on a refrigerated truck from Lodi California and must be picked up immediately. Proper notice will be provided prior to arrival, estimated to be mid to late September. We have experimented with a wide variety of Fresh Grape Suppliers out of the Lodi Region of California and have found that the F. Colavita & Sons provide the highest quality grapes in the Industry. We have been exclusively ordering Fresh Grapes from F. Colavita & Sons for nearly two decades with personal satisfaction as consumers and great feedback from our customers.

Fresh Grapes from California do not come with any additives or yeast for the winemaking process but we stock all of the additives and yeast that you will need and offer free testing of Acidity, PH, Brix (Sugar) Levels as well as free guidance as to what should be used including yeast selection to make the best wine a Vintner can make.

These are seasonal, and preorders correspond to their respective harvest seasons. Look for California and Italian products in late summer (Northern Hemisphere harvest).

Sangio for the Win!

"When my wife saw that these grapes were being offered, she told me I couldn't place an order if it didn't include them. I ordered these last year. The lugs arrived with the grapes mostly undamaged and free of oxidization, which is impressive for the long haul from California. When processing they did have a decent amount of MOG (material other than grapes) to pick out of the grapes as they were being processed. Once processed I had to do very little adjustment of PH/acidity and absolutely no sugar adjustment. The grapes arrived at a healthy 27 BRIX. I couldn't have asked for anything more and I'm about ready to bottle 15 gallons Sangiovese...actually, I'm looking to create my own Chianti blend...wish me luck!"
