I have 120 or -so cold weather hardy Marquette grapes in my vineyard. They are high top cordon trained, and I'm about to head out and shoot position as I type! We are in SW Wisconsin, Zone 4a so only cold weather grapes will work here. Putting in another row this year to make it 260 vines. Nice to find another small vineyard on TH-cam!
Really great. I write the Mosier Valley News, would love to include a link it the August issue so my 802 readers can see this. Best wishes for this year's harvest.
Thanks Susan! That would be awesome! We read the Mosier Valley New all the time! Maybe we'll run into you at MoCo when it opens up all the way! Cheers!
I put in 12 vines last spring, 2019, in Northeast Ohio and... I could stand to learn a lot! Looking forward to more of your videos. They're quite relaxing :)
I’m so excited to start this. We’ve got about 35 acres and a few grape vines, but I am very interested in growing enough to have my own wine!!! Thanks for starting this!
Your video was great to watch. Thanks for posting. I would love to start out with a few rows of vines. I tried searching for your videos on how to build the trellis and basically converting my 4 acres of field to a vineyard from scratch. Thanks n
Looking forward to all your videos, thanks! Ive got a small vineyard of 20 vines hoping to expand to 100-200 eventually. Just learning the ropes right now. Cant wait to hear about your gopher tales. Ive got my share of them. Had a huge oak tree come down on all of my vines a few months ago but miraculously they all survived and are thriving once again.
Hi Matt! Thanks for contacting me. I've subscribed and will watch through the season. I have a 1vine vineyard in my backyard in Minnesota. Literally 1 Frontenac Gris vine (too cold here for vitis vinifera). I am having fun seeing all the ups and downs of grape growing in miniature. You're more adventurous than I am!
Hello from North Central Washington. We have a lot of vineyards in our area, so I am putting in table grapes. These are purely for our eating pleasure. I have watch several of your videos and gained a great deal, thank you! We also fight the pocket gophers here, so I am creating 1/2 x 1/2 “ hardware cloth baskets to plant my starts in. I have question about the watering system. Why put the watering system on the lowest wire and not on the ground? We had 196” of snow last winter, so I see the watering lines being an additional snow load item along with the vine itself. I look forward to hearing from you on this matter. Dan
Lovely and inspiring stuff. I'm harbouring intentions to own my own vineyard some day. How big is your land? Who does the planning, designs, and where to plant etc?? I surely wouldn't mind to pay for your professional knowledge should it require. I have liked and subscribed.
Just sustained a hit from the Park Fire...so...I know it's a long process, but I'm thinking I'm going to have at least an acre (west exposure) to build a vineyard.
I love the work you are putting into your new series. It's very inspirational! 👍 I began growing grapes in the 1990's and making wine in the foothills of San Diego. Then I went commercial, buying grapes from other people's vineyards (CA central coast) and making wine in Paso Robles. Now, I've just started transitioning back to growing grapes (Pinot Noir & Merlot) and making non-commercial wine at a friend's place in the wine country of Los Olivos California. I'm planning to put out similar "vine to wine" weekly educational videos. But mine will be different in that it will have a spirituality of wine slant in which I will give motivational "possibility thinking" insights based upon analogies derived from the process of growing grapes & making wine.
Hello from Colombia... I just found your channel and I really like it. I notice that it is a small vineyard and I am curious to know what area you have and what varieties you grow. I also have a small vineyard at 2400 meters above sea level. I would like to share experiences... Greetings.
Hi Paul!!! Our vineyard's name is Happenstance Vineyards and we only label the varietals we grow and bottle: Alvarinho, Arinto, Graciano, Souzou, and Syrah. Very glad you're one of my first 100 subscribers! Cheers my friend!
Why are the plants so far from each other? Why are the poles tilting inward instead of outward? Why are plants missing in the middle of the rows? Why, God, why?
68 bottles of wine. At Costco the kit to make that many bottles of wine costs less than $100. Just saying you can make a small fortune from a vineyard... that is as long as you have a large fortune to start with. Don't get me wrong. I love my vineyard, but not for profit. It is all about self sufficiency, lifestyle and a fun hobby for me.
Please subscribe, comment, and share. Thanks!
The first day of the rest of my life starts with this video. I am starting my own vineyard in the aegean coast. Cheers!
The first day of the rest of my life as well
I’m starting my own vineyard ❤ life as led us here … to the first day of the rest of our lives.
Cheers!
Good luck buddy 👍🏽

Farming is hard and it is so nice at the same time. wish you the best of luck....

you have a lot of shade looks like does that have a bearing on production or sweet taste

Hello from Mississippi
I love that rear view mirror!
I installed it all by myself! Cheers!
Thank you for your video
What's the size of your vineyard?
Lovely and inspiring stuff. I'm harbouring intentions to own my own vineyard some day. How big is your land? Who does the planning, designs, and where to plant etc?? I surely wouldn't mind to pay for your professional knowledge should it require. I have liked and subscribed.
Um interesting .. nice
Good video
How far apart are vines?

Thanks Jess, I really appreciate that! Paso Robles!? Do you know Traci Dobberstein!? Cheers!
@@DirtyVineyard 👍I should have known Traci better, as she lived a few blocks from me in Redondo Beach/Torrance!

Hi from Washington state 👋🏼
How much land ur using
I am curious what you name some of your wines.
My nomination is “Moon over my chamois”😜
Hi Paul!!! Our vineyard's name is Happenstance Vineyards and we only label the varietals we grow and bottle: Alvarinho, Arinto, Graciano, Souzou, and Syrah. Very glad you're one of my first 100 subscribers! Cheers my friend!
Dirty Vineyard I have never tasted those and would love to. Dry wine?
Would you take $20 / bottle?
@@paulmullins4676 We only give bottles out as gifts, and you are welcomed to them when they are aged enough Paul!
Dirty Vineyard So kind of you Matt.
Glad to follow. What general location is this vineyard? Looking for land here in the northeast US to start something similar. CHEERS!
Hi Paul! We are in the Pacific Northwest in Oregon! Best of luck with your search, make sure to get the southern exposure for your vineyard, CHEERS!
Cheers
If you had to do it all over again, would you DIY or buy an existing vineyard?
What state are you located in?
I love the part where he talked about how to start the vineyard
SouthAfrican Wine farms World Class
I never subscribe it took 2 mins of your video for me to subscribe. Keep up us good old boy Americans got to stick together. Wish you great success
I want to learn the art of winery as a nobleman I want to learn
Why are the plants so far from each other? Why are the poles tilting inward instead of outward? Why are plants missing in the middle of the rows? Why, God, why?
Where are you located?
We are in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon, USA. Cheers Kevin!
How can you post a video saying ' how to start a vineyard for beginners' when you just made an intro ? And no direct link into the steps ?
Like it
👍
Thanks Mark! Cheers!
I will own a vineyard in California in the next 10 years.

Why would people sub comment or share when you have not said anything in your video
I find it extremely rude when people talk to me and they are wearing sunglasses......
It is to one's glory to not take offense.
Dont turn into a wineo.
That's what I want to do in my next year or so.
