THE EXPERIENCE

For those that know their Blanc de Blancs from their Brut Reserve – or for those that would like to learn – there is a tour or tasting experience right for you.

Join the Gusbourne experts for a guided tour to discover how they produce their award-winning English sparkling wines. Tours are run in small groups and hosted by the friendly, knowledgeable staff. They can also take private bookings for wine and dining experiences of various group sizes. From the one-hour hosted Sparkling Tasting Flight (£30 per person), or the tour, tasting and lunch on an Estate Tour (£100 per person) to a summertime picnic in the vineyards (£90 for two) – there is an experience to suit everyone’s tastes. A tour also makes the perfect gift.

TASTING ROOMS

Gusbourne’s cellar door and tasting rooms, The Nest, is open to visitors all year round. They stock a range of limited-edition wines that are available to taste and buy. You can also take a self-guided stroll in the vineyards before enjoying a glass or two in their wine garden, no booking required.

Throughout the year there are opportunities to attend unique events at The Nest, such as meals prepared by Michelin-starred chefs and tastings with the winemaking team.

The team also host tailor-made private tours, events and corporate functions on request. Contact: nest@gusbourne.com to discuss your requirements.

EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY

At Gusbourne they embrace tradition but readily challenge convention, even to make what might seem like minor alterations to the finished wine.

Known for their uncompromising quest for quality which is at the heart of everything Gusbourne do – from the way they grow their grapes to the way they age their wines. To them, winemaking is a slow and measured process. They follow strict, self-imposed parameters to maintain their exacting quality standards. And all the grapes used in their winemaking are sourced solely from Gusbourne vineyards.
