Chapel Down, Kit's Coty Chardonnay, Kent, England, 2013

Chapel Down is releasing a series of single vineyard over the next 12 months and this is the first release. From a vineyard planted in 2007 on a southerly facing slope of the North Downs. Rich and inviting nose of ripe apricot and apple with some toasted oaky notes. Very harmonious on the palate with a creamy texture and lovely weight too with plenty of elegant ripe apple and white fruit characters. The richness and depth of flavour can easily compliment a variety of food such as white fish or chicken in creamy sauce or even scallops.
