2018 Rathfinny Blanc de Noirs (Gift Pack)
Rathfinny Blanc de Noirs is a superb English Sparkling wine, made exclusively from estate-grown fruit (85% Pinot Noir, 15% Pinot Meunier) from the south-facing Cradle Valley vineyard on the South Downs of Sussex. Rathfinny has a strong commitment to sustainability, biodiversity and the preservation of the unique chalk downland terroir. The outstanding warm 2018 vintage delivers vibrant flavours of wild strawberry, blueberry, pear and clementine, layered with brioche and almond, all underpinned by fine bubbles, chalky minerality and a long, precise finish.
"Rich and elegant example of British Blanc de Noirs, with great precision and focus. Crunchy raspberry, wild strawberries, blackcurrant and Asian pear are topped by a buttery croissant and freshly baked brioche. Broad on the palate with persistent mousse and a persistent, zesty finish. Drink 2022-2035." Decanter
