A pale-pink English sparkler that feels like the first warm afternoon of the year, bright, elegant, and quietly celebratory. From the Kent vineyards of Gusbourne Estate, the 2019 Gusbourne Rosé is a classic trio of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, crafted in the traditional method and aged patiently to build depth and texture. The nose drifts between wild strawberries, redcurrants and citrus zest, with a hint of blossom. On the palate it’s vivid and silky: strawberries, raspberries and rhubarb, sharpened by crisp English acidity and a flicker of pink peppercorn spice. A sparkling rosé for long lunches, seafood towers, smoked salmon, or simply the act of opening something excellent on a Tuesday evening. Summer in a glass, but with impeccable manners.
