English Quality Wine

The nose is intensely aromatic, dominated by expressive notes of elderflower and zesty citrus fruit. On the palate, it delivers a razor-sharp acidity that cuts through with precision, echoing the characteristic crispness of the Kentish climate. The mid-palate reveals layers of gooseberry and fresh herbs, providing a complex and vibrant texture. The finish is remarkably clean, lingering with a persistent mineral edge that invites another sip.

Das Weingut

Chapel Down

In the heart of the Kent countryside, Chapel Down has pioneered the viticultural revolution of England. Established in Tenterden, the estate benefits from a unique combination of chalky soils and a temperate maritime climate, allowing specific aromatic varieties like Bacchus to flourish far beyond their traditional continental borders. The 2016 vintage reflects a defining moment for English viticulture, capturing the vibrant character of the Bacchus grape. Cultivated with meticulous precision, this wine expresses the raw, untamed beauty of the English terroir, solidifying Chapel Down's reputation as a benchmark producer of high-quality, expressive still white wines.
