The experimental data obtained for the presence of Pb, Cu, Zn and Cd in the different parts of grapes drown in an industrially polluted region showed that amounts were mainly due to the heavy-metal containing aerosols falling from the atmosphere. Part of them, however, got into the soil, and from there, even if in mineral amounts, penetrated via the root system into the grapevine plants and accumulated mainly into seeds and grape rachis.
