Blackheath Rugby is delighted to announce a new partnership with Gusbourne, one of the leading English vineyards, based near Appledore in Kent. Gusbourne was founded by Andrew Weeber in 2004, when he planted the first vines on Gusbourne Estate’s coastal escarpment in Kent, in the far southeastern corner of England.
