Perry Reserve 2021
This perry was a while in the making: Pressed in 2021 and slowly fermented, it then spent 5 months in a new oak barrel, followed by 12 months on the fine lees. As a result, the oaky notes do not dominate, but rather serve to highlight the fruity flavors of pear and gooseberry.
A perry with a beginning, middle and end: It starts all fruit and citrus, then the oak comes in for a brief intermezzo which finally fades into a lasting finish of tannin and mineral.
We love to create drinks with character. And this perry has plenty!
