From Whangarei to Dunedin (and everywhere in between), our teams of Brand Ambassadors prepare thousands of samples of the juicy red, green and black California Grapes for shoppers to sample. California Grapes are in season from August to December in New Zealand and we have been running sampling campaigns across the major grocery banners for several years now. 

While the grapes are delicious on their own, we also provide shoppers with inspiration for summer BBQs or Christmas Day menus by showcasing a range of dishes featuring grapes. A firm favourite was a delicious appetiser prepared by sautéing the California Grapes in balsamic vinegar and serving them on sliced baguettes with feta and basil.
