OBS. The grape is cultivated in Gibraltar more for ornamental 

 than useful purposes. Some of the vines produce fine fruit, 

 though not in sufficient quantities to make wines. The 

 Jews manufacture a home wine from the black grapes pur- 

 chased in the market, which is abundantly supplied from the 

 vineyards of Andalusia. The muscatel grape grows in great 

 perfection at Sandy-bay, near Algeciras, to taste the luscious 

 juice of which, this retreat is frequented in summer by the resi- 

 dents of Gibraltar.
