Fun Wine Facts
One barrel of wine equals 20 cases, which equals 1,200 glasses.
A ton of grapes makes about 720 bottles of wine or 60 cases.
Each bottle of wine contains about 2.8 pounds of grapes; that means each five-ounce glass of wine contains a little over a half a pound of grapes per vine.
One vine annually produces between four and six bottles of wine, or between 20 and 30 glasses.
Only nine percent of Napa County is planted to vines. Napa Valley only accounts for four percent of California's total wine production.
