Making large amounts has it's faults as well. One of my Cousins large barrels had some air leak and the wine went bad, It was the 2nd time it happened with the same barrel.

My DH and I started two grapevines two years ago. We finally got a few grapes this summer, but they dried up and fell off. Any idea what might have caused this?
Sorry to hear about your health problems and the need to limit the amount of wine you can drink. Thought a glass of red wine every day was supposed to be good for your cholesterol and heart.

Heart yes, it is okay for that. But my body produces a lot of cholesterol, with that being high then high dose of meds are needed to bring it down. Those meds work in the liver. So the wine and the meds both are affecting the liver. My last bloodtest was in normal range, but got there by reducing the wine intake.
Grapes may take 3 years or more before they really start to produce. Vineyards really don't start harvesting until about the 5th year. I have a few young vines and at 3 years am getting my first grapes. It is just too cold for them. I wouldn't worry about the grapes for another year. If you loose them then, it may be fertilizer/weed killer or water or heat.DonComment

Sorry to hear about your medical report. Sometimes things happen..we do not know why!!! We make the change that we need to do because we have to but then something good occurs or a good change happens. So lots of good wishes are being sent your way. Loved reading about your wine. I for one love to visit wineries....
Best of Luck
