That in it's own is fairly common but the owner of a local vineyard in many cases is both a farmer and historian. \n\nFor a vineyard to succeed you have to have a delicious product and a compelling reason for people to visit. Stopping by and enjoying a sample of wine or juice slows down the world and lets you off the merry-go-round for a few minutes.\n\nStephanie whom works at Lowes saved a bunch of Grape Vines at the end of their season in 2012. They were Niagra and Cawtaba. We had four plants that grew quickly and gave us the fruit we bottled this year. Four plants, 64 bottles of wine. Can't go wrong with that.\n\nThe process of growing, trimming and keeping those pesky bugs away has been a challenge but after two years it was either sell the house and down size or make the property pay for itself. Knowing that I have my Nephew Nicholas Waite and my long time friend and horticulturist Edith Colston to guide us, it was logical to open up a vineyard!\n\nHaving a three story barn and plenty of space has it's advantage. So after studying every book and website we could get our hands on and visiting every type of Winery we could chase down, we planted 167 plants from Nevinesupply.com in Vermont.\n\nThe interesting part is all of us have different types of wine they prefer so we chose a group that will allow us a lot of flexibility. These are the plants:\n\nFrontenac Blanc is a member of the Frontenac family. You may be familiar with Pinot noir or Pinot gris. The berries are yellow gold when ripe, producing a very light straw colored wine. The flavors are said to have a Stone Fruit or Melon nose making Dry white wine. As an added bonus with a late harvest making it possible to make Ice Wine.\n\nBrianna is popular due to its big tropical fruit aromas. It also does well in below zero temperatures and is harvested in early September. In addition to being able to be blended with others it is also delicious as a table grape for snacks. I am sure we will see these on the Cheese plates Chef Elizabeth Waite is planning for the yet to be named Vineyard Cafe.\n\nFrontenac does well even below -30F, these also ripen late and have a garnet color to them. Their flavor has been described as a teaser of Cherry, Plum and sometimes Chocolate. It produces a medium bodied red wine or even making a port. Some wines are then made from the naturally dried Frontenac and called Straw wine.\n\nCanadice Red grow in large clusters of light pink berries in medium size. The ripen in October and do well to -20F. As a eating grape they have a great shelf life, as long as four months! What I enjoy about these is they have a spicy flavor that adds some fun to a glass of wine.\n\nHimrod was produced as a combination between Thompson and Ontario grapes. It produces large bunches of White grapes which when turned into wine have a honey like flavor. They also are sought after for Jams and juice. They will be the first to ripen of the group. Beth will certainly make these on to a plate of some sort.\n\nConcord Seedless is Americas favorite grape! Makes an awesome grape juice that you wnat to dive into. The smell is rich and sweet, they make great Jams and Jellies. Plan on seeing these mixed in with several of the others for some complex flavors in a rich red wine.\n\nNiagra are very common in white grape juice and when turned into wine have a Riesling flowery note. They have a very late harvest and the berries are big and light translucent green. These are the first two plants we grew.\n\nCawtaba played an important role in Early America. During the 19th Century it was the most widely planted grape in the Country. It was one of the most widely distributed wine Acclaimed by Nichols Longsworth in his Ohio Sparkling wines that shipped to every coast and even back to Europe. This will make a light rose or pink colored wine like we made this year. Some say it has a grapefruit aroma. With such a high sugar content it certainly produced enough alcohol content.\n\nMarquette is Complex with cherry, black pepper and spices. Used on it's own and in blends.\n\nSabrevois has a fruity flavor with nice berry aromas.\n\nPetite Pearl has a spicy complex flavor with an essence of earthy aromas.\n\nAny questions please send me a note. If you have suggestions for the Cafe please send them along as well.\n \nPlease share your Vineyard adventures with us!\n\nBob\n" } ] } ] ```
