Note di degustazione
The 2014 Brut Blanc de Blancs (magnum) rises from the glass with notes of lemon and polenta, followed by a supple creaminess and slight smoke. The palate is vivacious, with a sprightly mousse; nothing here would ever make you dream that this is more than a decade old. Slenderness, freshness and brightness are mind-boggling on this magnum. It is as mellow as it is fresh, as understated as it is linear. Beautifully long, chalky, lemony, visceral and so utterly appetizing. Dosage is 7 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 2025.

Tasted from magnum. Undulating, mellow and mellifluous energy from this beautifully evolved Blanc de Blancs. Smoked pears, honey-soaked pear slices and late-summer hay meadow. The acidity has loosened into golden lacework and you can really lean into its gentle grace. (TC)
Disgorged in March 2019 under natural cork, Gusbourne's 2014 Brut Blanc de Blancs is showing very well indeed, unwinding to reveal aromas of crisp green orchard fruit, spring blossom, fresh bread, macadamia nuts and white currants. Medium to full-bodied, vinous and elegantly fleshy, it's seamless and complete, with fine depth at the core, racy acids and an elegant pinpoint mousse. Long and precise, this stands out as one of the finest offerings in its category.
Tasted blind in a comparison of champagne and English sparkling wine. 100% Chardonnay. Perhaps the most evolved nose of all these 24 champagnes and English sparkling wines. Very charming and evolved palate that lacks the zest of some – and is much sweeter than many – but has real evolution. Well mannered rather than brash. Very tight bead. Filigree texture. Champagne? Admirably long and complex. (JR)
