Lovely - are you going to make wine?

still waiting on my concord grapes. The vine was planted last year and it sure has grown! How long did it take before yours began producing fruit?

We dont usually make wine, but we leave them for the birds to eat ! They are not a sweet grape but last year we ate them all because they were really sweet enough to eat, so we will test them again this year and see, they have loved the drought.!
Lauram, this was a cutting from a neighbour and I believe it was two years before it settled and has been amazing ever since it is over twenty years old !
