Dutch explorer Adriaen Block noticed
wild grapes on an island
off the Massachusetts coast in 1614 and named
it Martha's
Vineyard in honor of his daughter.
Wild
grapes grow all over
Massachusetts, but it took Ephraim
Wales Bull of
Concord to
develop the Concord
grape (1849), good
for table use, preserves, and
sweet wine.
Today Massachusetts vineyards do much better,
using some of the finer wine grapes.
