GUSBOURNE

2009 Blanc de Blancs Brut

Grapes Chardonnay
Colour White
Origin United Kingdom, England
ABV 12%

Confirmed by this tasting as one of our favourite English fizz producers, Gusbourne's Blanc de Blanc is on scintillating form in this excellent vintage. Gorgeous interplay of orchard fruit (apple and apricot) and buttery brioche, with that superbly chiselled backbone of glassy acidity and tingling fine mousse.

2009 was arguably one of best vintages in recent memory; Gusbourne Blanc de Blancs and Gusbourne Brut Reserve promise to be even more successful than the multi award winning 2008 vintage. Winemaker's notes

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.
