Chapel Down Chardonnay

An elegant unoaked Chardonnay with aromas of white peach, lemon and apple. The palate is fresh and light with citrus and pear flavourings leading to the long, pure finish.

All fruit is sourced from Burgundian cloned vines on the North Downs, Kent and is hand picked to preserve the delicate flavours.
