from a winemaker... You're not going to find it online, or be able to ship it. You need to get it from a buddy who makes wine. And you're only going to find it in the fall

Hey Bob,

Thanks for your advise.. Do you happen to know, if people pay for it and what would be a fair price to ask ?


Tks
Tim

Most wineries dump it on their fields. I worked at one winery that had an auger when we emptied the press and guys would line up in their trucks and we'd augur it in their truckbed for free. If your not looking for truckloads it might be worthwhile trying to hook up with someone in the amateur winemaking community, they would have smaller quantities and likely not be in such a rush that time of year.

Tried buying in the past, no go. I got to know a winemaker and get it now for free. Have to time it right, when they are pressing. Depending on where you are, it is normally mid-August to Mid to Late October.
