   Hey Ben...
   
   Two of the largest expenses for small vineyard installations are irrigation system and mechanical structures (ie trellis, hardware ect) . Another concern in SV is pesky deer. If they do not wipe out the vines, they can do in your crop. As most projects go, all of the variables must be taken into consideration to reveal the total cost, for example, where is water supplied from (city, well, well shared with others?), what is the slope of the soil and is the water pressure/flow sufficient to reach all areas?, What type of mechanical structure do you want (steel posts, treated posts), do you plan to hand pick or mechanical harvest? What type of soil do you have and does it require some of the unique trace elements grapes require? I would recommend planting white wine grapes, so you will not have to wait for the wine to age in barrels.
   
   Cheers

   You Live in a Area that Grape Stock should be very available at reasonable prices. You have a lot of quaility Vineyards that might assist you in Starter Vines. You can also seek out a local Nursey in Saratoga or nearby Capitola. the cost can vary depening on your existing soil condition, avaible water supply. Plants can be costly if you choose Great Stock. If you are staring from scratch be prepared to spend a Couple Thousand Dollars to get started .

   I know little about vineyards, but I am sure it depends on the location. Is it of flat ground or on a steep hill? How easy it is to bring necessary machinery to the place, etc.
