Critics reviews
Tamlyn Currin 17/20
Full bottle 1,669 g. Certified B Corp. 100% Sussex, estate-grown grapes. 81% Pinot Noir, 19% Pinot Meunier. Fermented in stainless steel, 100% malo.
Big bubbles! A smoky and smouldering nose, a weighty and smouldering wine. Voluminous. Oranges, lime and stone. Beautifully ripe acidity sculpted into a curve. Rathfinny know how to deliver broad power with a burnish of magnificence.
Drink 2023 - 2030
Sylvia Wu 90/100
The 2019 vintage Blanc de Noirs spent 36 months on lees. Yeasty umami notes reveal nectarine, creamy apple, and red cherry on the nose. Zesty grapefruit, poached peach, and hints of strawberry sweetness grace the palate. Marzipan and golden apple peel with biscuity depth lead towards the saline finish.
Drink 2023 - 2028
