Grape prices diverge among Finger Lakes processors
Prices announced by major Finger Lakes grape processors show wider variation than in years past. Native varieties like Concord, Catawba, and Niagara display the largest price gaps, with demand not exceeding supply across many varieties. A decade surge in inflation and recession pressures reduce wine sales, dampening overall 1975 prices. The result is a sizable unsold grape tonnage and uneven market signals from processors.
