sparkling perry and grape co-ferment
This edition of To Boldly Go broadens our horizons of perry making – or do we mean winemaking?
The Metamorphosis brings together two grape varieties, Solaris and Seyval Blanc, with two pear varieties, Longbois and Antricotin, in a roughly equal blend for a wild co-fermentation before being bottle conditioned and hand disgorged, making this an utterly unique creation!
The perfect combination of the two fruits, the perry pears are revealed in the creamy texture, residual sweetness, honeysuckle aromatics and juicy nectarine flavours, while the grapes show themselves with Yuzu lemon, peachiness, citrusy lime, fine-boned acid, palate weight and something distinctly grapey!
Serious, yet fun, this makes a brilliant aperitif but is equally at home paired with fine goats cheese, tangy curried dishes or meaty, herby baked fish Mediterranean style!
Serve well chilled. Gluten free, vegan friendly. No added sulphites.
