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!

7/8/2024. Bottle shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear pale golden brown with a small bubbly head. Aroma is funky, cooked pear, caramel, flowers, nail varnish. Medium sweetness, light bitterness and sourness. Medium body, oily, average carbonation. Nice tart and slightly salty finish. Enjoyed this.
