Description
In a nutshell:
This Sussex sparkler delivers a delightful zip and zing, a symphony of citrus and crisp fruit - think English orchard meets a touch of toasty brioche.
The lowdown:
Imagine biting into a crisp grapefruit, its tartness softened by the sweetness of a just-ripe apple. Throw in a hint of buttery brioche for good measure, and that's the delightful dance on your nose with this English sparkler. Crafted in the traditional method, just like Champagne, it's a blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier grapes grown in chalky vineyards that bask in a cool maritime climate. Three years spent maturing in the bottle have lent it a complexity that belies its easy-drinking charm. It's a touch like a well-dressed country cricket match - all whites and sunshine, but with a surprising depth that keeps you coming back for more.
The Producer:
Rathfinny Wine Estate is one of the stars in England's sparkling wine scene. Founded by Mark and Sarah Driver in 2010, it nestles amidst the chalky South Downs, a mere hop from dramatic Beachy Head. This prime terroir, with its protective slopes, ripens grapes beautifully. Their focus is on the classic trio of grapes - Pinot Noir, Meunier, and Chardonnay. Their blends are impeccable, showcasing a mastery that's propelled them to the forefront of English sparkling winemaking.
When to drink:
A dry English fizz that shines as a welcoming drink, yet holds its own with a hearty chicken and mushroom pie.
