How to Use This Calculator
- Enter Tons of Grapes and Press Yield.
- Review Total Gallons (gal) and 750 mL Bottles (bottles).
- Use Total Liters and Cases (12 bottles) (cases) to inform your decision.
- Use the chart to visualize the results and explore different scenarios by adjusting inputs.
How the result changes with Tons of Grapes
| Tons of Grapes | Total Gallons | 750 mL Bottles |
|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | 155,000 gal | 782,318 bottles |
| 3,500 | 542,500 gal | 2,738,113 bottles |
| 6,500 | 1,007,500 gal | 5,085,067 bottles |
| 9,000 | 1,395,000 gal | 7,040,862 bottles |
What each input means
- Tons of Grapes
- Total weight of harvested grapes in US short tons (2,000 lbs). A typical small winery processes 5-50 tons per vintage.
- Press Yield
- Gallons of juice per ton of grapes. White wines yield 150-180 gal/ton; red wines 140-160 gal/ton due to skin and seed retention.
