Wine Description
The Story
Our flagship wine, Gusbourne Blanc de Blancs, is made using hand selected (predominantly Burgundian clone) Chardonnay. The wine is aged for a minimum of thirty six months on lees and three months on cork before we deem it ready for release.
Wine Information
A cool spring resulted in a later than usual start to the season. Once bud burst was underway growth was consistent and strong. Good temperatures in early July meant that owering was successful and relatively quick. Harvest commenced slightly later than usual, due to the late spring, but produced excellent fruit of a very high quality.
