Chapel Down English Rosé Sparkling Wine

A pale pink English sparkling rosé from Kent, made by one of the country's largest and longest-running wine producers.

A 750ml bottle of traditional-method English sparkling wine, made by Chapel Down at their winery in Tenterden, Kent — the heart of what's still called the Garden of England. The grapes are sourced from a network of Chapel Down's contracted vineyards across Kent, Sussex, Essex and Dorset, on chalk, clay and loam soils that mirror the conditions of northern France.

The blend is more layered than most English rosés — Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc and Early Pinot Noir. Made by the same traditional method used in Champagne: white and red wines fermented separately, then assembled into the final cuvée before secondary fermentation in bottle.

Pale rose petal pink in the glass. Fine, persistent bubbles. On the nose: lemon sherbet, freshly baked bread, a lift of wild strawberry. On the palate: redcurrant, blackcurrant, rosehip, light biscuit. The finish is crisp, dry and refreshing — built for summer drinking, but rewarding year-round.

Bottled at 12% ABV. Suitable for vegans.

For an aperitif before lunch. With a summer fruit pudding. Alongside a cheeseboard, smoked salmon, or simply a sunny afternoon.

Chapel Down was founded in 2001 and is now the UK's largest wine producer — a publicly listed company turning out wines, ciders and spirits from a winery and vineyard estate that draws over 100,000 visitors a year. The Rosé NV is the bottle that introduces most people to English sparkling wine.

75cl. Please drink responsibly.
