Grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV) has become widespread in the United States since its identification in 2012. GRBV is the causative agent of grapevine red blotch disease (GRBD), which has caused detrimental economic impacts to the grape and wine industry. Understanding viral function, plant–pathogen interactions, and the effects of GRBV on grapevine performance remains essential to developing potential mitigation strategies. This comprehensive review examines the current body of knowledge regarding GRBV, to highlight gaps in the knowledge and potential mitigation strategies for grape growers and winemakers.
