👁 In the Glass:
Brilliant pale gold with a fine, persistent mousse—vivid and refined.

👃 On the Nose:
Bright and aromatic. Lemon zest, green apple, and white peach are lifted by floral notes and subtle hints of brioche and chalky minerality.

👅 On the Palate:
Precise and focused. Lively citrus and orchard fruits are wrapped in a creamy mousse, balanced by taut acidity and a beautifully clean, mineral finish. Elegant and refreshingly dry.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Perfect with oysters, grilled scallops, lemon-roast chicken, or soft goat cheese. An excellent apéritif or pairing for light seafood and fresh, zesty dishes.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Delicious now for its energy and finesse, or cellar for 5–7 years to develop richer autolytic complexity.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Rathfinny’s Blanc de Blancs is a shining example of English sparkling wine—pure Chardonnay, coastal freshness, and chalk terroir come together in a wine of poise, delicacy, and distinction.
