Climbing plant Vitis vinifera of the family
Vitaceae. It is native to Asia Minor and
cultivated from antiquity for its fruit,
which is eaten or made into wine or other
fermented drinks; dried fruits of certain
varieties are known as raisins and currants.
Other species of climbing plant are sometimes
termed vines.
