Grapevine (Vitis vinifera)

Other names: European Vine, Noble Vine

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


The vine, scientifically known as Vitis vinifera, also known as the European vine or the noble vine, is a plant that has made a significant contribution to the cultural history of mankind. Its importance lies primarily in the production of grapes from which a variety of products are made, the most famous of which is undoubtedly wine. Although grape cultivation places the greatest emphasis on the quality of the grapes intended for wine production, they are also used in the cosmetics and medical industries.

The main product of the vine is, of course, the grape, from which must is pressed and which, after the fermentation process, becomes wine. Other parts of the vine are also used in the production of wine, namely the vine grapes, which, after being harvested and dried, become grape branches used to age the wine when it is stored in barrels. In addition to wine, the grapes are also used to make grape juice, grape jelly, marmalade and so on. In addition, the leaves of the vine are used in the kitchen to prepare various dishes, most often as a wrapping for rice or meat stuffed variants.

In the cosmetics industry, the vine's seeds and their oil are mainly used for their regenerative and antioxidant properties. Vine scrubs are also very popular, as they are rich in vitamins and minerals and effectively cleanse the skin while soothing it. The seeds are also used medicinally, specifically their extract, which has a positive effect on blood vessels and circulation. A number of products from the vine are used in wine therapy, including the wine itself.
