This is a list of varieties of cultivated grapes, whether used for wine, or eating as a Table grape, fresh or dried (raisin, currant, sultana).

Single species grapes

While some of the grapes in this section are hybrids, they are hybridized within a single species (for example, Niagara). For those grapes hybridized across species, see below.

Vitis vinifera grapes (wine)

Red grapes

White grapes

Vitis vinifera (wine and table)

Vitis labrusca (wine and table)

Wine grapes

Table grapes

Green table grapes
Red table grapes
Purple table grapes
Varied/Other

Vitis riparia (wine grape rootstock and hybridization source)

Vitis rotundifolia (table and wine)

Vitis aestivalis (wine)

Multispecies hybrid grapes

Vinifera hybrids (wine)

Hybrid grape varieties (see Hybrid grapes) 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.

Non-vinifera hybrids (table)

Non-vinifera hybrids (rootstock)
