Winery Long Lunch
Winery Long Lunch
15 November 2026
It’s our Poppies payback for your support throughout the year.
This year, the chefs are firing up the charcoal grill, with plenty of smoke, flame and all the good things that come with cooking over fire.
We’ll be digging into the cellar too, opening some special bottles alongside your Poppies favourites, and Sean Preston is back, bringing the tunes and doing what he does best.
There’s no formal lunch or timetable. Just a long afternoon at the winery — food coming off the grill, bottles being opened, music playing and plenty of time to settle in and enjoy it all.
Good food. Good wine. Good music. And a cellar that’s open for the day.
We’ll be back in touch around two weeks before the day with the final details and to confirm any dietary requirements.
