This week, we had the pleasure of welcoming partners, growers and traders to the Grapa breeding site in Bakersfield, California, for our Early Season Preview.

Throughout the week, guests joined small, guided tours of both the Grapa breeding site and commercial vineyards, offering a firsthand look at our very early and early commercial varieties, including ARRA Honey Pop™, ARRA Fire Kiss™ and ARRA Mystic Charm™, as well as several exciting new selections from the Grapa portfolio.

There is no better way to discuss a variety than by standing beside the vines, seeing the fruit firsthand, tasting it, and exchanging ideas in the field. These conversations are what continue to drive innovation forward.

While our Early Season Preview has come to an end, the season is far from over.

For those who couldn't join us this week, we've carefully preserved a selection of our very early varieties in cold storage so they can also be experienced during the Grapa Field Days, taking place in Bakersfield from 3–7 August.

Have you already registered? We'd be delighted to welcome you.

For more information, please contact Erika at erika@grapaes.com.

Some moments never get old.

Watching ARRA Honey Pop™ being packed directly in the vineyard in Bakersfield is one of them.

Leading the very early white seedless segment, ARRA Honey Pop™ gives growers the opportunity to reach the market early without compromising on quality or eating experience.

Beautiful on the outside and just as impressive on the inside, it combines a clean, creamy appearance with excellent berry attachment, making it ideal for export. Every bite delivers exceptional sweetness, satisfying crunch and a delicate honeydew flavour, while its outstanding postharvest performance helps ensure it reaches consumers looking as good as it tastes.

Sharing the passion – Right now in Southern Africa:

“It’s a great, beautiful grape, we are having a great time packing it.” shares Gabriel Viljoen of G.P. Viljoen Farming

We’ve heard other growers excited about this year’s performance.

“The ARRA Passion Fire was probably the most beautiful red grapes around on our farms.”

ARRA Fire Kiss™

Start the season with a Kiss

This year, attendees got a firsthand look at ARRA Fire Kiss™ in Egypt. What stood out was how distinctly different it was from the Flame, leaving no doubt that it is the perfect Flame replacement.
