Unripe grapes were harvested and pressed in the middle ages. The resulting 
fermented product is called 'verjuice' and is a much sought after product by 
modern recreational cooks. Concentrating the juice would result in a cooked 
taste that would neither be sweet nor retain the refreshing properties of the 
unrefined sourness.
