Yeah Eben, that's right, CS even has his picture on the label..
wine is called "Old Fart"... right CS?

Bike path in Brewster, between Millstone Rd. and the Ocean Edge property has acres of them concord grapes growing both sides of the trail, hot day it smells like Welch's Grape Jelly thru there..
take a bike ride, and grab some cuttings, or pull some up and slip them in yer saddlebags
