What message does the story about the fox and the grapes teach?

The author of the fable The Fox and the Grapes could've chosen any creature, including man.

Fables rely on fast recognition of their point to achieve their impact. Most fabulists don't use mankind as protagonists because their audience would too easily identify with the reactions of other people and thus be less quick to absorb the intended meaning of the tale.

Fabulists demonstrate truths about human nature using non-human illustrations to highlight motives we mightn't immediately comprehend if observing the same behaviour in other humans.

Perhaps the author chose a fox in this instance because foxes are traditionally considered extremely smart (cunning is the popular description of a fox, or cute in the sense of acute) and perceived to be adept at living well at the expense of others.

As great observers of human nature, fabulists are concerned with using images which bring the greatest impact to their tales; the storyteller here might well have intended the listener or reader to feel quietly pleased at the fox's irritation and embarrassment, and so to believe in its readiness and need to excuse its inability to reach the grapes by in effect blaming them, suggesting they're probably not worthy of eating in any case.

I expect we could think of many ways to retell this particular fable using human examples, choosing people we don't especially like. No doubt many, on first hearing a fable, wondered whether the author was thinking of them personally, or of someone they knew...

The liquid is filtered and stored in wooden barrels to 'age' before being bottled.

Do grapes flower?

>___I am not sure about all grape bearing vines, but wine grape (vitis

vinefera)

vines flower during these times:__Not wine "gape". Just

a typo...but it detracts and distracts from an otherwise really good answer. _______________________________________________________________
I am not sure about all grape bearing vines but, wine gape (vitis

vinifera)

vines flower during these times:

  • May to June (in the Northern hemisphere)
  • November to December (in the Southern hemisphere)

The embryo bunches (they look like tiny green hard berries) break and form into flowers after the 15th or 16th leaf has formed on the vine. The time period when this would occur is normally about eight weeks after bud break with the aid of adequate pollination and fertilization.
It is crucial that the weather during this time is dry and a lack of frost. Rain and frost will destroy the delicate tiny flowers. If the flowers are destroyed then the vine will not produce grapes.
A temperature of a daily average of at minimum of 59 degrees F is also critical, where a temperature of 68-78 degrees F is ideal. These temperatures are needed to allow the vine to flower. The flowers that bloom on vitis
