muscadine update for Smokin Joe on the road... (and everyone else...)

[hubcapsc]

I pretty much ate all the muscadines in the vine up on the driveway... there's another good one over
at the barn... today I went up to the vine that neighbor Dan pulled out of a tree a few years ago
and draped over some poles and wire that form about a 50 boot arbor... holy moly... that thing's
coated from one end to the other with the best muscadines I've had in a long time!

I have a purple vine, I think it is a Frye and a white that is called a Cowart.  Doggone critters usually beat me to most of them as they did this year.  All I found was a bunch of hulls on the ground underneath.  I hope they had the runs!!!!!!!!!!!!

As I told you before when I was a kid the woods behind my house was full of muscadine. I would go with my uncle to get them he made wine from them. I've not seen any in years now

Hee hee... I picked a big paper sack of them one year (as opposed to just standing around the
vine eating them...) and sat on the porch and ate them all... I've never eaten enough wild
muscadines to keep me from wishing I had more... Since the season is almost over, I plan to
walk up to neighbor Dan's several times tomorrow...

My wife's uncle Ray has muscadine vines beside of his other grapes. He makes communion wine from both. Mostly it tastes like vinegar. It's not good wine at all.
However, http://www.chateaumorrisette.com/ actually offers a good muscadine wine. At the wine tasting after the winery tour, the wine tasted like eating Ray's muscadines off the vine.

It may be time to go visit the vines if the muscadines are in again. Thanks for the heads up.
