If you don't mind the chemicals, and have the time (it doesn't sound like you are in a real rush), then I would put a year of roundup-ready beans on it, maybe a year of corn. The rotation helps get the ground mellowed up and breaks down old root mass. Then you will get the weeds out too. Grapes are kind of sensitive, I am not sure what 24D would do to them in the future, but I doubt roundup would hurt - it is a contact herbicide, so it disappears after you apply it. You mentioned doing yuppie exotic animals and stuff, and grapes, so I don't know if going organic is big for you or not. But from the sound of using 2,4D it doesn't concern you much. Going organic, about the only way to get rid of weeds is crop rotation.
