Roughly August to October out of the Aegean. It fills the weeks between the end of the Southern Hemisphere programmes and the start of the European harvest, in the same slot Egypt occupies.

Most of it reaches Europe overland and Russia by truck. The container volume is what goes further east, and on that routing the thing to watch is the far end: table grapes travel well but punish a slow discharge more than they punish a slow voyage.
