A grape is the fruit that grows on the perennial and deciduous woody vines of the genus Vitis. Grapes can be eaten raw or used for making jam, juice, jelly, [[vinegar]], [[wine]], grape seed extracts and grape seed oil.<br />
<br />
Grapes can be dried to produce [[sultanas]], [[raisins]] and [[currants]]<br />
<br />
A '''raisin''' is any dried grape. While raisin is a French loanword, the word in French refers to the fresh fruit; grappe (whence the English grape is derived) refers to the bunch (as in une grappe de raisins).<br />
<br />
A '''currant''' is a dried Zante grape, the name being a corruption of the French raisin de Corinthe (Corinth grape). Note also that currant has come to refer also to the [[blackcurrant]] and [[redcurrant]], two berries completely unrelated to grapes.<br />
<br />
A '''sultana''' was originally a raisin made from a specific type of grape of Turkish origin, but the word is now applied to raisins made from common grapes and chemically treated to resemble the traditional sultana.<br />
<br />
The red grape is one of the growing '[[superfruits]]'.<br />
