2016 Gusbourne Rose
Delicate pink in appearance, with soft summer berries and floral notes on the nose. The palate shows bright red fruits, driven by ripe strawberries, fresh cherries and redcurrants, with a crisp freshness and creamy, rounded texture on the finish.

Vinous
The 2016 Rosé from Gusbourne has a slightly deeper salmon/bronze hue than I was expecting, but with a fine mousse. The bouquet does not mess about, delivering strawberry and light peachy aromas. Not amazingly tense, but clean, and if you like your rosé fruity instead of steely, then you will be pleased. The palate is fresh on the entry, offering red cherries, orange peel and lemon zest, armed with lively acidity. The rather spicy finish just feels a little heavier than I would have liked. But otherwise this is a fine sparkling rosé to enjoy over the next 4–5 years.
