Default Catawba Kits

We've had some Catawba wines and would like to know if anyone knows of a
kit out there or where I might be able to get some juice. Any help would
be appreciated!

Default Catawba Kits

Todd,
Catawba is not often sold as a kit but juice is readily available from
several sources if you are in Western NY. If you are not, Walkers
Fruit Basket pails some juices for shipment via UPS; They are a big
operation, it's a press house gone crazy...

The website is:

Good people. Keep in mind Catawba is not necessarily a novice makers
wine. The acid can be through the roof. That said, there are enough
of us here to help you through it. (I'm not saying you are a novice,
just that it's not a kit wine, it may need a little more TLC.)

Could try Presque Isle in Erie PA. Also you could buy some juice from
Fulkerson's Winery in Dundee, NY, or Fall bright in Wayne, NY.
www.fallbright.com, however I just looked at their website, they are
sold out this year.
