Wine grape species...
Wine is an alcoholic beverage typically made from fermented fruit, usually grapes. The word comes from the Latin word vinum, meaning vine. Non-grape wine may be called country wine.
Wine grape species
Wine is usually made from Vitis vinifera grapes from Europe. It can also be made from from Vitis labrusca, and hybrids of the two. Vitis labrusca, Vitis aestivalis, Vitis rupestris, Vitis rotundifolia and Vitis riparia are native North American grapes usually used for eating or grape juice but sometimes for wine, like Concord wine. Hybrids of vinifera with other species were originally developed to combine American hardiness and resistance to phylloxera with European flavor. Although only rarely used in traditional wine regions, hybrids are planted in substantial numbers in cool-climate viticultural areas
