Chapel Down Bacchus Gin brings together winemaking expertise with modern distillation techniques.
Created using distilled grape skins from a single vintage year, the spirit has been developed to reflect the delicate flavour profile of the wine varietal. A heady aroma of intense citrus peel, juniper and freshly cut grass leads to an early palate dominated by ripe citrus fruit with a herbal finish.
Our spirits, ‘The Spirit of Chapel Down', are packaged in an elegant, custom-made 70cl glass bottle which links back to the two production processes; distillation and winemaking. The bottom half of the bottle reflects a cut-glass crystal decanter and the frosted top half of the bottle denotes the classic shape of a wine bottle.
