Could you elaborate on that a bit?
Do you meant the the consumers tastes are changing or
expanding and wanting something different? Do you mean
the varieties that are being made available are
different than old varieties, so that the taste is
being lead by what breeders are now offering?

What flavor characteristics do consumers now look for
in good table grape?
