Also means
raisin (dried grape)
Usage Note
Raisin is a common false friend: in French it means a fresh grape, while the English 'raisin' (dried grape) is un raisin sec in French. Une grappe de raisins is a bunch of grapes. France is one of the world's largest wine producers, so le raisin is closely associated with wine culture and the autumn vendanges (grape harvest).
Examples
"Elle a mangé une grappe de raisins au dessert."
Natural Translation
She ate a bunch of grapes for dessert.
