    Grapes don’t make wine, silly. They’re inert.

    Table grapes have learned from the chameleon.

    when i say “red grapes,” i’m always referring to the ones that are actually red because they have the most satisfying snap when you eat them.

  Who calls green grapes white…?

  Never heard that happen

    Might be different in other languages, but English usually divides grapes into red and white for color.

    But I guess another question is why they call it white wine when it’s more yellow.

      In English, grapes are green or red.

      Wine is not a grape. White wine and red wine refers to the color of the wine. Nobody calls vodka golden because it came from a potato.

      Which part of the world are you from? I’m in Canada, and we call them green grapes and red grapes

      Meanwhile Wikipedia notes ‘“Black” (dark blue) and “white” (light green) table grapes’

        US. When I go to the grocery store, they’re categorized under white or red.

        That’s also how the English Wikipedia classifies different grape cultivars, even ones that aren’t intended to make wine.

        en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sultana_(grape)

        en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Almeria_(grape)

    Never heard about green grapes. Here in Germany they are called “white grapes” and EN-Wikipedia is also calling them that in english. We are also talking it “white wine” and so on.
