Multispecies hybrid grapes
Vinifera hybrids (wine)
'''Hybrid grape varieties''' or "
hybrids" is, in fact, the popular term for a subset of what are properly known as ''hybrids'', specifically crossings between one
species of the
genus vitis and another. The scientific definition of a hybrid grape is any crossing (intra- or inter-specific) of two grape varieties. In keeping with the popular definition, however, the ones listed below are inter-specific hybrids where one parent is a European grape.
