NOMENCLATURE OP GRAPES. 



PLANT ESTRANI, Dun. 



Vitis uva perampld, acino rotunda, subflavo, pimctis nigris notato, fyc. 



The fruit of this variety is round, large, of rather an amber 

 colour, marked with small black points, and has a very sweet 

 and agreeable flavour. It is pretty common in the vineyards 

 of several districts in the environs of Aix, in Provence. 



LISTAN COMMUN, Dun. 



Vitis uva magnd, acinis ovato-subghbosis, subconfertis, dbis, cute tenui. 



This has leaves of medium size, irregularly palmated, of a 

 dark green above, and covered beneath with white and close 

 down. The bunch is large, formed of berries which are 

 rather small, almost uniform in size, a little flattened at the 

 base and at the top, and pretty closely set ; they are of a 

 greenish white where they are shaded, and of a rather dark 

 yellowish gray where exposed to the sun. This vine is found 

 in many of the provinces of Spain. At San-Lucar, it forms 

 nineteen-twentieths of the vineyards, and is the basis of all the 

 excellent wines of that country. At Rota there are also en- 

 tire vineyards composed of it. It is one of the varieties held 

 in most esteem at Malaga for making wine and also for eating. 

 At Grenada they only cultivate it for the purpose of eating 

 the fruit when fresh. 



This vine has several sub-varieties, the two principal are, 

 one with red fruit, and the other with very black fruit.
