Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
A light and bright lemon-yellow colour. Pear and floral on the nose. Poppy has lovely fruit concentration with more pear characters and citrus on the palate. Lovely acidity to keep the wine in balance. Chill and serve with Spaghetti alla Vongole,or just enjoy a glass as an aperitif. VEGAN FRIENDLY

Vineyard Notes
Initially 2024 was a typical warm, dry season then became wet and windy as sub-tropical weather systems pushed south in December and January before returning to a warm and dry season. It was colder than average from budburst to flowering, then windy and cold during flowering which extended this phase of grape development. We had a wet and windy December. We then had a turnaround, with a dry end of season - a few hot days in early February and then March was terrific for ripening wine grapes; warm temperatures during the day and cooler temperatures at night.
Winemaking
Winemaker Notes
You can go two ways when making a Pinot Grigio – you can take the path of making a lighter, fresher and leaner style, or you can go the road of a complex and textural Pinot Gris. Those who are familiar with Poppy know we took the first path. Our aim is to copy what the Italians do in the mountains of Friuli. We pick at night to protect the delicate flavours and then ferment the grapes in stainless steel tanks and don’t allow any time maturing in oak. We bottle the wine pretty much as soon as it was clean and bright.
