....... the different variety of grapes have different shape leaves..... and this also changes during the growing period......... very early growth of grape leaves, the different varieties of leaves can look a little the same, but as growth gets towards picking it is easy to pick the different leaves and grapes as even the bunches of wine grapes are different shapes and easy to tell the different varieties......... failing that, they all taste different straight off the vine....... but better in a glass, chilled
