Poplar Grove Cascadia Series Pinot Gris 2024
Introduction
Poplar Grove Cascadia Series Pinot Gris 2024 is a vibrant white wine from the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, Canada. Produced by Poplar Grove Winery, one of the oldest original family-owned wineries on the Naramata Bench, this wine is part of their Cascadia Series. This series is designed to showcase the unique terroir and climatic conditions of the Pacific Northwest, focusing on freshness, purity of fruit, and a bright, approachable style.
Wine Description
The 2024 vintage was shaped by the specific conditions of the Okanagan growing season, resulting in a wine with excellent aromatic intensity and a crisp, refreshing profile.
Varietal Composition: 100% Pinot Gris.
Aromatic Profile: The nose is clean and highly aromatic, featuring bright notes of Granny Smith apple, ripe pear, and honeydew melon. Subtle floral hints of white spring blossoms and a touch of citrus zest add to its inviting bouquet.
Palate and Body: On the palate, the wine is light-to-medium bodied with a zesty, energetic mouthfeel. It offers flavors of orchard fruit, white peach, and a squeeze of fresh lime. The 2024 expression emphasizes a lean, mineral-driven style rather than a heavy or oily texture.
Structure: The wine is defined by its racy acidity, which provides a crisp and mouth-watering sensation. The finish is clean and lingering, with a faint stony minerality that is characteristic of the glacial soils found in the Okanagan Valley.
Winemaking: To preserve the primary fruit aromatics and fresh acidity, the juice is fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks. There is no oak influence, ensuring that the natural characteristics of the Pinot Gris grape remain the focus.
ABV: Typically ranges between 12.5% and 13.0%.
