It is a vine it is on a fence about 6ft tall and covers the fence about 20 ft.

Ampelopsis arborea
 
That is it, you know my next question being a wine forum, lol.

ARE THEY EDIBLE?
 
I can't find any other info so I do not know. I wouldn't eat or do anything with them with out being 100% sure they were O.K.
 
most of the places I've seen say they are in fact part of the grape family and are edible, just like any wild fruit though is identifying it and making sure it is what it is thought to be.
Best thing to do is take some to your agr. agent and let them check it out for you they will know for sure what it is and if it's ok to eat or make wine with.lol
