葡萄又叫蒲桃,古称草龙珠。李时珍在《本草纲目》中是这样介绍葡萄的:“可以造酒,人酺饮之,则醄然而醉,故有是名。”可见葡萄其名跟它可以酿出美酒大有关系。“汉书言张骞使西域还,始得此种,而神农本草已有葡萄,则汉前陇西旧有,但未入关耳。”可见葡萄最早是从西北传入我国中原地区的。 Grape is also called Roseapple, the ancient name of grass ballons. Li Shizhen in the “Compendium of Materia Medica” is the introduction of grapes: “can make wine, drink people, but then drunk, but there is a name.” “Visible grapes its name can be brewed with its great relationship. ”Han Zhang Qian also made the Western Regions also began to be such, but Shennong Materia Medica already grapes, the old Han Longxi before the old, but not into the ears." Visible grape was first introduced from the northwest China’s Central Plains region.
