The gift of the Golden Pear. To distract the gods while he stole fire for mortal man, Prometheus threw a Golden Pear into the courtyard of Olympus with the inscription, “For the most beautiful goddess”. This coveted pear was awarded to Venus, goddess of love, sensuality, and beauty. A goddess of nature, revered at springtime, the bringer of joy to gods and mortals. Venus Reigns caresses your lips with purity and charm. A soaring achievement of elegance and simplicity. Colfax golden pear wine aged to full maturity in specially selected red wine casks, nished with a gentle kiss of honey. Before pouring, give a solid bottoms-up tilt and swirl to disperse sediment evenly and best enjoy the complex aroma and bouquet. Best enjoyed at cellar temperature, 50/55F. With or without 1or 2 ice cubes.

Pours clear, light gold into a shaker. No head. Pear and oak aromas. Sweet pear and red wine upfront turns to oak in the dry, lasting finish.

Refrigerated brown bomber poured into a white wine glass. Hazy yellow with very little head. Aroma is oak with some, medium body, light carbonation, and no lacing. Taste is pear, oak, and some red wine. Pretty good.

Awesome perry! Medium sweet pears with red/white wine, vanilla, oak, and light spice. Great balance/complexity. Very smooth/light carb.

Bottle at PIB 2015, pours a cloudy blonde with an orange tinge and a s white head. Aroma brings out subtle red wine barrels and a touch of dry apple skins. Flavour brings out vanilla, candied sugar, and apples. Not really pronounced on the red wine, but it's pretty well-balanced. Solid.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours hazy light gold with a transient white smear. Aroma of perry with light notes of red grape and wood. Near med body. Flavor is pear and wood, honey on the lips, and the grape is pretty low key. But I think it’s there. So much wood the pear is almost submerged, but it comes back with each quaff.
