The Tabletop Grapes journey began when Gino and Elina Garreffa followed their passion to be on the land, both leaving their professional positions to pursue full-time work in agriculture. In 1972, they bought their first property in Mildura, in far northwest Victoria, known for its abundant sunshine, rich red loam soil and irrigated water from the Murray River. Wanting dried fruit that was rich in its true, natural flavour, the family developed a unique method that produces exactly that, a premium tasting product that is 100% chemical-free dried and delicious. In 1978, the family started growing premium table grapes and were one of the first families to export internationally. 40 years later, Tabletop Grapes are proudly multiple award-winning producers with their fruit recognised for its premium quality across the world
