Overview

This fact sheet discusses how Texas vineyards can diversify their income and contribute to a more sustainable and innovative future through verjus.

Verjus production can enhance the existing practice of cluster-thinning by turning the grapes that would be left on the ground into a viable, value-added product. This fact sheet discusses how Texas vineyards can diversify their income and contribute to a more sustainable and innovative future through verjus.
