Vitis vulpina </table> A grape is the fruit of a vine in the family Vitaceae. It is commonly used for making grape juice, jelly, wine and raisins, or can be eaten raw. Many species of grape exist including:

Vitis vinifera, the European winemaking grapes
Vitis labrusca, the North American table and grape juice grapes, sometimes used for wine
Vitis riparia, a wild grape of North America, sometimes used for winemaking
Vitis rotundifolia, the muscadines, used for jelly and sometimes wine
Vitis aestivalis, the variety Norton is used for winemaking

Hybrids also exist, primarily crosses of V. vinifera with one or more varieties of V. labrusca, V. riparia or V. aestivalis. Hybrids tend to be less susceptible to frost and disease (notably phylloxera), but their wine has little of the characteristic "foxy" odor of labrusca. Wild grapes are often considered a nuisance weed as they cover other plants and form thick entangling vines.
