In a bold move to challenge outdated perceptions, we took our best-selling English sparkling wine to the Champagne region of France for a blind taste test. Under the guise of “Chapelle en Bas,” we invited French consumers to compare our Brut to a major Champagne brand. The verdict? A staggering 60% preferred Chapel Down. French locals and tourists alike praised our wine as “fresher” and “crisper,” with some shocked to discover its English origins.This blind tasting was part of our mission to change the way the world thinks about English wine. We’re proud to showcase the exceptional quality of our sparkling wines, perfect for celebrating life’s special moments.
