Tell your Friends!! First Line Quality Wine Grapes from the premier growing areas are now available for PICK UP in the Bronx. Winemakers have been waiting for years for the opportunity to purchase this level of quality so nearby to home.

You no longer have to go to Hartford Ct to the Musto Wine Grape Company to received this quality fruit. They will be here across the street from the Hunts Point Market. Now all roads from New Jersey, Long Island and the 5 Boroughs of NYC lead to the Musto Wine Grape Company.

With the Professional Musto COLD CHAIN Packing System the grapes picked at night when the temperature is lower than 50 degrees the grapes moved to cooling towers and get a dose of SO2 Gas and are packed again in a Trailer Truck which is refrigerated to 40 degrees and arrive on the East Coast. No other grape supplier on the East Coast has this level of care for the fruit to make wine. Period!

Make no mistake if you have been disappointed with other distributors in the NY area I am pretty sure most of you are, now there is no excuse. No driving to Hartford, Make your order and pick up in the Bronx. No excuses, and then you don't get to complain you purchased hot moldy grapes from others. Of course those who like to blame the grapes as a excuse won't have that opportunity any longer if they get grapes from the Musto Wine Grape Company.

Get with the program. The Past is over.
