Default buying grapes

Have you considered raising your own grapes? I don't know if Concord is a
wine making grape, but I have tasted some wine made from them and it was
delicious.

You could plant them this spring and in 3 years have your own. You plant
them around 10 ft apart, and once they are established, 3 or 4 plants should
be plenty for wine and jelly.
