Tasting note
Light gold in colour with a fine mousse and aromas of citrus peel, green apple and stone fruits alongside brioche and biscuit notes. Lemon Sherbert notes on the nose turn to a creamier lemon posset on the palate, with white peach, apple and pear. Behind the elegant fruit lies more complex flavours of toasted nuts, buttered toast and delicate spice leading to a long, intense finish.
Unique Selling Point
Unlike in champagne where there are many examples Gusbourne Brut Reserve LD is only of only a handful of English wines to combine the freshness of a youthful wine with the more complex brioche and toasty notes.
Viticulture
From hand selected grapes grown on our own vines from our estates in Appledore, Kent and West Sussex. Vines are pruned single or double guyot depending on block. Vines are a mixture of Champagne and Burgundian clones.
Food Match
Delicious with richer fish dishes and lighter meats. A scallop gratin, or salmon en croute, lemon and herb crusted chicken or a pumpkin and hazlenut tortelloni.
