First time that I've ever heard "vineyard" refer to anything other than
wine making, so, as they say, you learn something every day!
Thanks

I would also not see a vineyard reduced to just growing grapes for wine, it is
the generic word for a plantation of grapes, of which you might then make wine,
cognac, vinegar, table grapes, raisins, juice etc.

The common use is for wine grapes.
However the Oxford English dictionary says "typically for the production
of wine" so it does not exclude table grape production from 'vineyards'.
The OSMwiki is presently not helpful .. not mentioning table grapes at all.
