Muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifolia). "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness..."

I made a pear pie from pears I picked out of the pear tree in my front yard. It is very yummy. I’m quite pleased with myself. Now I just need to be patient for the figs and muscadines to grow.

Mighty Fine Wine

It has been fun watching my daughters grow up and develop their tastes and preferences, from individual brands to specific product categories. Being young, they are having to try a lot of things to expand their knowledge and understanding. They are limited by their pocketbooks. And, in some cases, their predilections are rather basic, not yet refined.

Like with wine. As I watch them peruse the thousands of bottles on display, be it at Walmart or Total Wine, they gravitate toward less expensive bottles, as you might expect, but also toward sweeter wines. I am thinking of Stella Rosa black specifically. It sounds sophisticated, but it is just a modern version of the Boone’s Farm we drank decades ago as kids, or what is known pejoratively as Three Buck Chuck (from Charles Shaw) at Trader Joe’s. Inflation has pushed it to Five Buck Chuck nowadays, though.

It’s a cheap buzz, and if you hide the bottle, you might just impress your guests.

The only problem, though, is that wine consumption continues to drop, and concurrent with that, so is production. In fact, global wine production has now dipped to 1961 levels. That’s huge, because world population was only three billion then, and stands at eight billion now. Basically, we’re just not drinking wine like we used to, not even close.

Much the same can be said of beer. Both wine and beer were daily go-tos, replaced today by a slew of non-alcoholic options, not to mention seltzers. Wine is being consumed more as a special occasion beverage. A large portion of this tidal shift is coming from younger consumers, who are drinking much less than their parents and grandparents did, and sometimes even none. In other cases, though, when they do drink, they are reaching for more expensive varietals, as well as organic and orange wines.

That’s got to be tough news for wine producing regions of the US, from Napa Valley to Texas Hill Country and north Georgia. Wait. Did he just say Georgia? Oh, yes. They turn those muscadine grapes into bottled goodness. They have to be getting nervous, though, hoping that younger customers will choose their more expensive bottles a little more frequently than they are today.

Still, I have to think that it is even worse news for the cheaper wines, the Stella Rosas and 19 Crimes that you can pick up for $10-12 a bottle at the grocery. Those bottles are starting to gather dust.

Actually, I see a lot of opportunity for those craft wineries. As a much older adult, I love doing wine tours. My wife and I will go winery hopping in Texas Hill Country around Fredericksburg, or in north Georgia. Nothing beats sitting under a tree in a huge Adirondack chair, sipping a $15 glass of wine, looking out over rolling hills planted with demonstration crops of grape vines. It is the perfect tableau, one that endows relaxation, but also lubricates the wallet. Those vines you see there are for looks mostly, because the grapes they produce cannot come close to being sufficient for producing many cases of wine.

Truth be known, those wineries in Hill Country get the vast majority of their grapes from the Lubbock area, and over in north Georgia, if you don’t like the sweeter taste of a muscadine wine, they can offer you dry Cabs and Pinots made from grapes they have shipped in from California, Oregon, and Texas. Turns out only muscadines will grow in their acidic soil.

All of this reflects changing consumer preferences, and specifically among a younger demographic. How the industry adapts to these changes is critical for its long-term success. The nearly 100 wineries within an hour of Fredericksburg are completely dependent upon people regularly drinking wine, and lots of it. More so, since most of these small wineries do not have distribution in stores but instead are only available at the winery, this is exceedingly important.

I need to do a better job of educating my daughters on fine wines, helping their tastes mature as their discretionary incomes increase. But if they do like their contemporaries, they may opt for less and less of anything alcoholic. And, I must also be cognizant of gender differences in taste preferences, with women—and I say this carefully, because I know my step-daughter and sister-in-law defy this—opting for sweeter wines, and men for dry ones.

As for me, I have witnessed my own wine consumption slow down a bit. Not that it was ever out of control, mind you, but I noticed my wine rack, that was once filled to capacity with 12 bottles, now has five. And it has been a while since I had any at all, at least a month, like before my surgery.

In order to capture the attention of that younger demo, the entire industry needs to lean heavily into digital, and specifically social media. Old people like me may make for great wine tourists, but our days are numbered, and given the sad reality that age and the number of meds you are on are highly correlated, alcohol consumption must be in measured doses. That’s another way of saying, once more, that old people cannot be counted upon to lead companies and industries into the future. That’s the job of the young.

And I will drink to that.

Grape

A grape is a fruit, botanically a berry, of the deciduous woody vines of the flowering plant genus Vitis. Grapes are a non-climacteric type of fruit, generally occurring in clusters.

The cultivation of grapes began perhaps 8,000 years ago, and the fruit has been used as human food over history. Eaten fresh or in dried form (as raisins, currants and sultanas), grapes also hold cultural significance in many parts of the world, particularly for their role in winemaking. Other grape-derived products include various types of jam, juice, vinegar and oil.

…

Seedless grapes

Seedless cultivars now make up the overwhelming majority of table grape plantings. Because grapevines are vegetatively propagated by cuttings, the lack of seeds does not present a problem for reproduction. It is an issue for breeders, who must either use a seeded variety as the female parent or rescue embryos early in development using tissue culture techniques.

There are several sources of the seedlessness trait, and essentially all commercial cultivators get it from one of three sources: Thompson Seedless, Russian Seedless, and Black Monukka, all being cultivars of Vitis vinifera. There are currently more than a dozen varieties of seedless grapes. Several, such as Einset Seedless, Benjamin Gunnels's Prime seedless grapes, Reliance, and Venus, have been specifically cultivated for hardiness and quality in the relatively cold climates of northeastern United States and southern Ontario.[23]

An offset to the improved eating quality of seedlessness is the loss of potential health benefits provided by the enriched phytochemical content of grape seeds (see Health claims, below).[24][25] …

Seeds Main articles: Grape seed extract and Grape seed oil

Muscadine grape seeds contain about twice the total polyphenol content of skins.[32] Grape seed oil from crushed seeds is used in cosmeceuticals and skincare products. Grape seed oil, including tocopherols (vitamin E) and high contents of phytosterols and polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, oleic acid, and alpha-linolenic acid.[35][36][37]

In religion ...

The Catholic Church continues to use wine in the celebration of the Eucharist because it is part of the tradition passed down through the ages starting with Jesus Christ at the Last Supper, where Catholics believe the consecrated bread and wine become the body and blood of Jesus Christ, a dogma known as transubstantiation.[48] ...

I've been MIA for a few weeks. Between my mental health, starting a couple of new projects, work, and renovations, my spoons have been dangerously low.

Mental Health

I had a Myriad genetic test to see why I failed so many SSRI/SNRIs. The answer is because of the answer is because of all of the ones on the market three (3) work with my genetics. The rest are 'might be okay' or 'absolutely the fuck not.' I've already failed one of the 3, so that makes two left. It is also why I have failed tricyclics. The vast majority of them are in the 'lolnope' category. So is my current antipsychotic, so I guess I get to detox from it. >:-[

Anyway, so Pristiq is making me vaguely paranoid (vaguely being above baseline...) and now I'm sleeping around 4 hours, which is why I'm up at 0130 typing this. I'm tired all the time, have a headache, have all but stopped eating, and in general don't constantly want to unalive myself, but holy fucking fuck! I'm so tired I could drop into a coma at any point during my day. All of these are known side effects., so yay. I titrated up on my dose a week ago and all of those things have gotten worse. Also, yay.

Oh! And a couple of weeks ago I had this random asshole get angry at me on the road because I had the audacity to be in front of him and slow down to turn into my driveway. He was going to turn into the drive behind me and make the biggest mistake of his life until he saw my partner come out of the house and then he thought better of it. That's twice now in the space of a year that men have thought they were going to intimidate me by following me because I had the audacity to be afab existing alone in a vehicle. (The other got mad because I had the audacity to pass him because he was going 20mph under the speed limit.) Some of us have no flight response. That's bad for someone just wanting to be a scary jerk.

New Projects

I'm about 4k words into 2 new stories with about 8k words to edit in my finished works. The aforementioned exhaustion has got those things moving slower than I'd like, despite all of the extra hours in my day.

Work

I'm working long hours again, this last week it was 49. The two weeks before it averaged 44 each. The extra pay helps with bills since my partner was unemployed for 2 months and has worked at his new job for 2 weeks. His unemployment still hasn't come through. (Thanks 'small government' Republicans! It's great that you're in my uterus, but also want to destroy any social safety net us poors might need, you know, like unemployment. You're awesome!)

Renovations

They all but stopped until the last 2 weeks. I think daddy was sick of my partner being under foot for everything instead of worrying about getting a job. Honestly, I was, too. We moved a year ago and he's been unemployed almost half that time. If we hadn't been living in an RV this whole time, we'd have been homeless. (Not really, but mom and dad would have been paying rent or bills or something because I couldn't.) It was only when I told him that he needed to think about moving back to Missouri did he find a job and quickly. It wasn't like this before we moved. He was always employed. I also have fruits and veggies going nuts. I have a sweet potato that I'm going to put in a hanging basket. I have 6 volunteer tomato plants, two of which are losing their minds. I have no less than 3, probably, cantaloupe plants in my burgeoning compost pile. Horsenettle all over the yard, muscadine vines (wild grapes), wild petunias. This wee witch's cottage loves us as much as we love it.

The Cats

And because I need to end on a high note, I need to talk about my cats. My almost 9-year-old beastie, Clarise the former completely indoor City Kitty, has embraced the idea of being a Country Cat. She's being supervised as she explores the yard and all that our wee acre has to offer her, which is mostly grass. She has flea and tick medicine on for the first time in her life. I also discovered that her soft double coat is too dense for a tick to get through. How? I found one on her face trying its damndest to get through to her skin. It was failing. So, now we do tick checks, despite the medicine. Lt. Dan is turning into the most rambunctious little bugger as she heads toward 6 months old. Still, nothing seems to phase her, so I hope she's going to be super chill. She was desexed recently and completely unbothered by the surgery. She also got her first dose of flea medicine because she didn't weigh enough to have any yet. She is also excited to be a Country Cat, except they don't make a harness small enough for her. Fun fact: Tiny dog harnesses are the same size as kitten harnesses.

@headspace-hotel​ op i love you for your words but i can n o t believe you mentioned our native grapes of scuppernongs but not muscadines! scuppernongs are a tasty variety of muscadines but there are other kinds! so following this post if anyone goes out to try your local grapes and don’t love the variety you find, there are likely other varieties nearby! to my memory scuppernongs are more greenish while other varieties can be more like your typical red/purple grape? personally i enjoy the purply ones best but the green boys are also good

there’s also dewberries all through the south! most people think they’re blackberries or raspberries, not understanding the substantial size difference. if you have a local vine with small, ripe, purply-black berries, about 1/3 the size of a blackberry, it’s probably dewberries!

there’s also evidence native americans cultivated food forests that op alluded to, entire swaths of forest with specific plants intentionally placed for foraging later, plants that worked alongside each other to prosper. the old growth forests chopped down to make space for farm land were so much more than wasted timber- they were an infinite food hack that just got destroyed.

also like my knowledge is limited to my environment, but if i went outside right now i could snatch clovers, dandelions, and pine bark and have breakfast after some careful cooking. the landscape is food. lawns destroy the tons and tons of food the earth is trying to return to us, even after all the destruction that’s happened. let the clovers grow, let that weird vine take over the fence, see what blooms! i’ve been awake too long and had a long work day and op i’m sorry you’re tagged in all this but, tl;dr, destroy lawns as a concept, figure out what’s edible in your local region, and destroy the classist food system we currently have <3

(but also when “foraging” make sure you leave enough of the plants that they can come back, that’s very very important, i used to live off the snacks i found in the woods (not like as a choice but as a rural poor kid) and it matters to preserve the plant)

i promise im going to stop posting about it soon but the most insane thing about the Banana Discourse is that like. there are already lots of fruits that are of limited availability in the USA because they're not grown there and they haven't enforced massive export economies for them at gunpoint. you'd think by the way these people talk that usamericans are rioting in the streets and committing mass suicide because they can't buy a papaya or a durian or a dragonfruit at the gas station. like there's already fruits that are comparatively scarce in the USA and everyone seems to have survived that being the case but you point out that socialist revolution would require a scale back from Total Banana Ubiquity and people legitimately act like it's white genocide
