Chapel Down’s Kit's Coty vineyard is a 95-acre vineyard on the North Downs of Kent. The southerly aspect ensures the vines capture the sunshine all year long while the warm, free draining chalk soils provide the perfect terroir for producing well balanced, intensely flavoured fruit.

Harvested by hand in late September, Chardonnay grapes are whole bunch pressed before undergoing wild fermentation in third and fourth use French oak barrels adding complexity and richness to the wine. This is a rich example of English Chardonnay with aromas of white peach, apple and apricot. The palate has a flinty texture with flavours of toasted hazelnuts and subtle oak leading to a long finish. An ideal pairing to Rye Bay scallops in garlic butter or simply grilled lemon sole.
