Discover the elegance and finesse of Rathfinny Estate Classic Cuvée Brut, a Sussex sparkling wine that exemplifies the finest qualities of English winemaking. Made in the traditional method from hand-harvested Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay grapes, this wine is a true reflection of the exceptional 2018 vintage—often hailed as the vintage of the decade.

Tasting Notes:

  • Colour: A beautiful buttermilk golden hue that hints at the richness within.
  • Nose: Inviting and complex, with aromas of ginger-dusted white plums on cinnamon toast, creating a warm and enticing bouquet.
  • Palate: On the palate, Rathfinny Classic Cuvée offers a rich and layered experience, with flavours of white apricot and crème pâtissière. The finish is nuanced with preserved Meyer lemon, adding a touch of citrus brightness to the rich, creamy texture.

About Rathfinny Estate Classic Cuvée Brut: This wine is a blend of 50% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, and 15% Pinot Meunier, crafted to showcase the estate’s ‘house style’ of Sussex sparkling wine. The 2018 growing season was one of the warmest on record, resulting in early flowering, excellent fruit set, and perfectly balanced grapes. Harvested in October, the fruit was exceptionally clean with ideal sugar and acidity levels, making this vintage truly remarkable.

Serving Suggestions: Rathfinny Classic Cuvée is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a range of dishes. It is a superb match for fresh linguini with clams and fennel, as well as richer fare like duck prosciutto and ham hock terrine. Its rich palate and balanced acidity also make it an excellent choice for toasting at celebrations.

Buy now and send Rathfinny Estate Classic Cuvée Brut Sussex Sparkling 75cl as a thoughtful gift for any sparkling wine enthusiast or to enjoy a sophisticated addition to your own collection. This wine’s class and poise make it a perfect choice for both refined dining experiences and special occasions.

 

“This wine – the third release and from one of the best vintages of the decade – really shows what the estate is capable of: a pinot-dominated blend, exuding poise and finesse, with finely chiselled flavours of citrus, apricots and hints of cream. Complete class in a glass.”  - Terry Kirby, The Independent
