Yes, one does eat the grape leaves in dolmades (dolmadakia). The leaves are selected for edibility - and they are so tender and delectable. They should not be too young (fragile) or too old (tough), and they should be of medium size. Also, it is best to make sure that they are 'organic' and that the vines have not been sprayed with insecticide. Vines are usually sprayed because no one anticipates the fact that the leaves will be eaten. There are many recipes from many traditions for dolmas on the web. Enjoy!
