Berries

Among the various grape varieties, the so-called raisin varieties stand out. Since raisins are pitted, they are ideal for making raisins. One of these varieties is Kishmish Century, a new variety for Russian winegrowers, with beautiful large berries with a nutmeg aroma.

All grape varieties are conventionally divided into table and technical. The berries of the first of them are mainly used fresh, the second are used for various processing, including in winemaking. This is due to the chemical composition of the fruit: the ratio of sugar and acid content, additional aromatic components, and, in general, the amount of juice in the berries. The best wine varieties are included in the technical list.
