GUSBOURNE
2009 Rosé Brut Gusbourne Estate
| Grapes | Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay |
| Colour | White |
| Origin | United Kingdom, England |
| ABV | 12.5% |
Chardonnay 29% Pinot Noir 45% Pinot Meunier 26%. The nose is full fat rather heavy and the ripe fleshy strawberry on the palate is all a bit fleshy sweet. Behind the richness there is some freshness but not really enough to balance so the finish is over heavy. Rating: 88 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)

Very racy, tingling acidity enlivens this rather delicate blend of the three Champagne varieties from the garden of England. With its wild strawberry and just-ripe cherry notes, it is elegantly, subtly charming. Rating: 89 The Wine Gang - www.thewinegang.com
Gusbourne
Despite boasting only a short history (the 2006 was their first release) Gusbourne Estate vineyards have notched up quite a reputation, winning awards along the way. The vineyard is at Appledore in Kent, roughly mid-way between Ashford and Rye. Planted with the 'usual' trio of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, the grapes are hand-picked. A small portion of the harvest is fermented in oak, but most of it takes place in stainless-steel before the second fermentation in bottle. The wines are aged on their lees for a minimum of 22 months before dégorgement.
