Grapes are small, round or oval fruits that grow in clusters on woody vines. They come in a wide range of colors, including green, red, black, purple, and golden yellow. Their smooth skin encases juicy flesh, with some varieties containing seeds while others are seedless.
Grapes have a sweet, refreshing flavor that varies from mildly tart to richly sweet depending on the type and ripeness. They are eaten fresh, dried into raisins, or used to make juice, jelly, wine, and vinegar.
Nutritionally, grapes are rich in vitamins C and K, antioxidants (especially resveratrol in darker varieties), and natural sugars. Their portability, sweetness, and versatility make them a popular fruit around the world.
