Note to Editors
Gusbourne produces and distributes a range of high quality and
award winning vintage English sparkling wines from grapes grown in
its own vineyards in Kent and West Sussex.
The Gusbourne business was founded by Andrew Weeber in 2004 with
the first vineyard plantings at Appledore in Kent. The first wines
were released in 2010 to critical acclaim. Following additional
vineyard plantings in 2013 and 2015 in both Kent and West Sussex,
Gusbourne now has 93 hectares of mature vineyards. The NEST visitor
centre was opened next to the winery in Appledore in 2017,
providing tours, tastings and a direct outlet for our wines.
Right from the beginning, Gusbourne's intention has always been
to produce the finest English sparkling wines. Starting with
carefully chosen sites, we use best practice in establishing and
maintaining the vineyards and conduct green harvests to ensure we
achieve the highest quality grapes for each vintage. A quest for
excellence is at the heart of everything we do. We blind taste
hundreds of samples before finalising our blends and even after the
wines are bottled, they spend extended time on their lees to add
depth and flavour. Once disgorged, extra cork ageing further
enhances complexity. Our winemaking process remains traditional,
but one that is open to innovation where appropriate. It takes four
years to bring a vineyard into full production and a further four
years to transform those grapes into Gusbourne's premium sparkling
wine.
Gusbourne's luxury brand enjoys premium price positioning and is
distributed in the finest establishments both in the UK and abroad.
Our wines can be found in leading luxury retailers, restaurants,
hotels and stockists, always being aware that where we are says a
lot about who we are.
