GUSBOURNE

2016 Pinot Noir

Grapes Pinot Noir
Colour Red
Origin United Kingdom, England
ABV 11.5%

It wouldn’t be a still English wine round-up without a nod to English red. For the last few years, Gusbourne has led the way with its Boothill Pinot Noir, meticulously made by winemaker Charlie Holland from the estate's finest Burgundian-clone Pinot.
This Wine GB Awards Gold Medal & Trophy winner is perhaps their best yet, with that now familiar nose of feminine floral notes, precise summer red fruit and delicately perfumed oak.
The palate is lush and silky, beginning with a fusion of ripe red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry flavours.
The real beauty in this wine is the light, supple, silky tannin, and the elegant integration of oak and spice that must draw comparisons to fine Burgundy.

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.
