Ripe grapes are plump and juicy. The ripe ones are firm, while the overripe ones are mushy. The overripe ones also crush easily when touched, and some might even shrivel. Testing them for taste can also help evaluate ripeness. Most grape varieties are small, acidic, and bitter when unripe, but they swell and become sweet when ripe. Additionally, ripe grapes can easily be plucked from their cluster.
