The 2020 vintage allowed for near perfect build of sugar levels and flavour profiles in its wines. Pale golden in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is full of ripe lemon, citrus peel and orchard fruit notes alongside a distinct mineral character. The palate is equally appealing, with creamy lemon posset, green apple and white peach notes. It’s elegant and complex, with hints of grated ginger, freshly baked croissants and toasted hazelnuts and that distinct, salty mineral note cutting through, leading to a long, zesty finish.
Food pairing
This is beautiful with fish and seafood: from a dressed crab, to grilled mackerel with a radish and kohrabi salad. Or, try it alongside creamy burrata with salad leaves
and a citrus dressing.
crystalline purity
Loving this new Blanc de Blancs 2016 from the reliably-great English fizz producer Gusbourne - the warm vintage gives it nice body and ripeness, but it’s got a crystalline purity too. Fine fizz, lemon meringue pie and a salty, mineral finish. V classy.
this is breathtakingly good
An all-chardonnay sparkling wine from Gusbourne in Kent, this is breathtakingly good; pure and lucid, with a creamy texture and a sense of pent-up energy so that it carves smoothly through your mouth leaving you wanting more.
just sensational
Outstanding. It’s not every day we’re blown away by a wine, but this new 2016 Blanc de Blancs by Gusbourne is just sensational. We’re tasting a lot of English fizz at the moment…only a few stand out, and this did so effortlessly.
sleek, cool and very elegant
Wonderfully vibrant pear fruit with notes of garden herbs and snow peas. Although this has wonderful juiciness on the palate, it is sleek, cool and very elegant. Minty freshness at the long, crystalline finish.
