Leading English fine wine producer, Gusbourne, has signed a three-year partnership deal to become the Official Sparkling Wine Partner of Somerset House. As part of the sponsorship, Gusbourne will have exclusive pouring rights across many of the dynamic, cultural events that take place at Somerset House throughout the year.

Gusbourne, renowned for its award-winning portfolio of still and sparkling English wines, and Somerset House, a cultural landmark in the heart of London, have come together in celebration of artistry, creativity and exceptional British craftsmanship. The partnership marks the beginning of an exciting collaboration that seamlessly blends heritage and innovation to enhance Somerset House’s exclusive events and exhibitions with handcrafted and refined hospitality.
Neil Irvine, Head of UK Sales at Gusbourne, commented: “We are absolutely delighted to be named the Official Wine Partner of Somerset House. This feels like such a natural, authentic partnership that celebrates the coming together of two quintessentially English brands.
“Somerset House hosts such a busy calendar of events and experiences every year that will be instrumental in enabling us to further expand and diversify our audience. The iconic courtyard provides the most stunning backdrop for us to showcase our spectacular portfolio of wines over the next three years and we look forward to all that’s to come.”
Stuart Richmond, Managing Partner at Reg&Partners, added: “We are delighted to sign Gusbourne wines into Somerset House’s roster of sponsors for their 25th Anniversary Year. They have an exciting programme of events planned where many visitors will be able to enjoy Gusbourne’s exceptional sparkling wine portfolio.”

About Gusbourne
In 2004, when the first vines were planted at Gusbourne Estate, they had a clear vision and a single goal: to create English Sparkling Wines that would stand up alongside the very finest offerings from across the globe. The team has had their sights set on perfection ever since.
Focusing on just the classic grape varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, Gusbourne believes that the only way to ensure the quality of their grapes is to grow them themselves. That’s why the grapes used in their winemaking are sourced solely from Gusbourne vineyards in Appledore, Kent and next door to the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex.
Gusbourne has an uncompromising quest for quality and a fastidious approach to detail that is aligned with their vision to create the finest wines they possibly can. They choose to plant predominantly Burgundian clones. This means that they produce lower yields, but the resultant fruit is riper and has significantly more flavour, making the grapes ideal for the production of fine sparkling as well as still wines. Gusbourne wines are always vintage, unique to each growing season and an authentic reflection of a time and place.
