Cross-section of a grape
A cross-sectional view of some grapes, showing the main physical structures of the grape and the components extracted during each pressing to make wine. Grapes are cultivated for both winemaking and eating. They were originally domesticated in Central Asia in the Neolithic period, and the oldest evidence of winemaking dates to around 8,000 years ago.Image: Mariana Ruiz Villarreal
