Pure and elegant, Gusbourne's 2019 Blanc de Blanc showcases English grown chardonnay at its finest. Classic Chardonnay aromas of green apple, citrus, and a robust minerality which is complimented perfectly by the richer notes of buttered toast and Tarte Tatin, a product of the extended sur-lees ageing.

The 2019 Brut Blanc de Blancs, made from Kent and West Sussex fruit with some base wines fermented in oak, spent 46 months on lees. It opens with a touch of Amalfi lemon peel that fills out into lemony bright creaminess. The palate is beautifully lithe and smooth, expanding like light in a dark room. All this brightness rests on a soft yeasty backdrop, reminiscent of lemony brioche, while tiny bubbles fizz gently. This elegant bright and balanced Blanc de Blancs combines verve with smoothness and comes with a long salty finish. Disgorged: May 2024.
