Edible, yes, but stringy and with an unenjoyable mouth feel.  You'll 
get better grapes if you thin after bloom -  bigger berries without 
making the clusters too compact.
For eating the vine,  tender green shoots of smooth stemmed varieties 
are better, though tart.

My 'Jupiter' grape vine has an absurd number of flower buds, so I'm 
planning on removing most of them. Are they edible like grape leaves? 
Recipe ideas?
