Kent's Gusbourne Plc, the English wine producer, has announced its 2023 Harvest Report and with that posted reports of its biggest yield to date.

According to the company, the harvest came earlier this year than usual - with fruit taken under sunny skies before the wet weather came.

A spokesperson for the firm said: ''The Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes show fine expressiveness and are expected to produce outstanding wines.''

Following the warm growing season of 2022, the vines emerged from winter in great health. Good weather during the flowering period this year led to an abundance of fruit.

According to Gusbourne 'careful management of the vines throughout the summer' meant that the fruit quality and quantity was very strong.

Mike Paul, Interim Chief Executive Officer, said: "2023 will mark Gusbourne's biggest yield to date, but what is crucially important is that the vineyard team have maintained the high quality of the fruit which is the building block for our award winning wine.

''The winemaking team, led by Mary Bridges our Head Winemaker, are delighted with the potential for an amazing 2023 vintage. The resulting wines will be bottled during 2024, further adding to our inventory levels for sale in future years."

"This has been a fantastic year for Gusbourne, and our success is testament to the team's unwavering commitment to detail and excellence."
