Naturally sparkling, bottle conditioned perry made from a mid season pressing, using yard blend of perry pears including Blakeney Red, Red Longdon, Red Pear, Gin, Winnals Longdon, Hendre Huffcap & Brandy. Fruit came from 50-150 year old traditional orchards, grazed by sheep .
Gentle pop on opening & gentle soft fizz. Honeyed citrus on the nose & then unctuous pear fruit sweetness, & a frizzy tannic backbone with nice citrus acidity, pineapple & honey notes. Nice full mousse & mouthfeel. Like drinking liquid pear honey.

Panda at home, thanks to Danlo cheers Ed, 01/10/22. Almost clear light golden with a decent white cap, as it goes for a perry, that stays as a small swirl and some edgeing. Nose is pear juice, grass, herb, trace of apple, light sugars. Taste comprises nice pear presence, balanced and bitter sweet, light orchard wood, grains, faint acidic trace. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Solid well balanced perry.

Taste is sweet, perry pear, juicy, fruity, syrup, with some drying tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, medium-sweet light tannic finish. Nicely drinkable.
