Chapel Down, Kit's Coty Bacchus, Kent, England, United Kingdom 2020

Sourced from the chalky, south-facing Kit's Coty site on the North Downs of Kent and fermented in oak (including a small percentage of new oak), it expresses a touch of smoke, with nettle, wildflowers, and freshly picked green apple on the nose. The palate reveals more crunchy green fruits with a fragrant hint of lychee, seasoned by a pinch of white pepper. An intriguing, ambitious expression of the Bacchus grape that never fails to impress.
