Grape Tincture & Alcohol-Free Extract

Grape (Vitis vinifera) is a woody deciduous vine of the grape family, Vitaceae, native to the Mediterranean, central Europe and southwestern Asia and cultivated for wine and fruit for at least 6,000 years. It climbs by forked tendrils, with large, lobed, toothed leaves and clusters of tiny green flowers that ripen into bunches of berries. Each berry holds two to four hard, pear-shaped seeds with a bitter, astringent taste, a by-product of pressing. We extract the dried seed.
