Grapes
Grapes are grown widely in the world. It is known that grapes go back to
the Neolithic period; for example in 1996 a jug filled with wine-7000
years ago was discovered in northern Iran. In Mesopotamia and ancient
Egypt other clues have been found pointing to the existence of grape
cultivation and wine production. In 2007 the area cultivated globally
with grape was estimated to be 708 million hectares with a total
production of around 65 million tons of which 7.7 million tons were
table grapes. Italy, France and Spain are the most important producers
of grapes generally; Italy, Spain and Greece remain the most important
