This is wonderfully perky. Lovely bright fruit, hints of tiny strawberries with cream. This has great weight and an easy persistence which makes it a real joy to drink. From Appledore in Kent but with a very definite nod in style to the best from Champagne. L&S (Oct 2013)

It is rare that a wine lives up to the marketing blurb. But this brut reserve from the Gusbourne Estate is Kent does just that. It is Chardonnay-heavy (68 per cent), fresh and bubbly on the tongue and very good for its price. - The IndependentPress Reviewer (Feb 2015)
Rating: Silver International Wine & Spirit Competition 2014
39% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir, 21% Pinot Meunier. Pale orange-pink. Complex, developed nose with nice autolytic character. Ripe and biscuity – crowd-pleasing but not confected. Creamy, and with good length too. Rating: 17 Richard Hemming MW - www.JancisRobinson.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.
