Chapel Down Classic Brut NV

Chapel Down Brut NV is a classic example of quality English sparkling wine. It offers aromas of red apple, citrus fruits and freshly baked bread together with hints of strawberry and quince on the palate and fine persistent bubbles. Fruit is sourced from vineyards in Kent along with partner growers from the South of England. Cool fermentation in stainless steel followed by partial malolactic fermentation took place, followed by maturation on fine lees in tank for six months before bottling and an average of 18 months further ageing on lees in bottle.

Chapel Down is England’s largest wine producer. Based in the heart of the Garden of England, Chapel Down’s finest vineyards are primarily situated on the North Downs of Kent with a terroir very similar to that of Champagne. The Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Bacchus vines are grown on south facing chalk soils and benefit from a warm, maritime climate. Chapel Down also source high quality fruit from long-term partner vineyards across Kent, Sussex and Essex, resulting in balanced wines with unique flavour profiles.
