Chapel Down Share Discussion Threads

The gin distillery closed years ago. The weather's just as unpredictable in the Champagne region. Personally I prefer Chapel Down.

Sadly it’s a market grossly over supplied and now realising the our weather is unpredictable! CD holds far too much stock and heading for acute cash flow problems. The city wizzos who invested here have lost a packet. Ashford brewery was a disaster and I imagine their gin distillery is heading the same way.The product is certainly overpriced. CD is currently unsaleable and joins a lot of wineries in the same boat. Personally I much prefer Nyetimber.

Sadly this is the kind of business that has done for the AIM market.

I fear worse to come.

750k adjustment for the weak harvest!!

How was the value of something growing given a value?

I fear a cash flow issue coming up and this heading back to the 20`s

I'm sure they want it at the right price, but probably not the brand

[yohoho] 25/10/2024 14:14

The fact that none of the credible wine businesses want to buy it speaks volumes. It has always been a badly managed hobby business.

[chutes01] 25/10/2024 13:08

Carter made a mess of this

[timmy40] 25/10/2024 12:27

at the moment i am unsure where the floor is on this right now.

[chutes01] 18/10/2024 14:09

Of course it is, the weather has been dreadful all season
Good years, bad years, get over it, that’s farming, and there’s plenty stock to shift
What we need to see is how the larger winery will be funded, if there is a partner or TO
That’s what to concentrate on

[castleford tiger] 18/10/2024 13:31

harvest is below average i hear

I certainly think he overhyped the sales situation, presumably to help the funding discussions. He certainly liked attending the sponsored events. Pity he or no other member of the board bothered to turn up at the recent shareholder tasting evening a couple of months ago, perhaps that says it all
