The first of its kind in the world is exactly what we like to find here at Craved, and this pear ice wine doesn't disappoint. Once Upon a Tree's award-winning wonder pear ice wine is rich and distinctive in colour, exceptional in it's intense flavour and certainly worth every penny. Even though it is meant to be enjoyed as a light tipple or as a desert wine, we wouldn't fault you for going in for another glass right away.

375 ml. bottle shared with Kraddel during the (Ice) Cider/Perry tasting @ Barely Legal Tasting Room. 2009 Vintage. Only Vintage. Obtained in a trade with fonefan. Sampled. Clear golden. Nose is very light, almost not there, only some vague sweet pear. Taste is sweet pear syrup, long warming finish, syrupy, lightly boozy, very long aftertaste lingering into herbal & herbal liqueur territory, very unexpected. Substantial thick body. Very different from what I expected. Absolutely awesome all the same. /////// Tried it again, this is really, really good, lots of complexity.

Bottle at Jan & Charlottes tasting, Ulfborg, Denmark 09.04.11 cheers Jan & Charlotte Nice aroma though it is more subtle and blunted than the Ice Cider that we are also trying this alongside. The alcohol is also a touch more noticeable here and warming. There is an interesting combination between the two pear varities, on the one hand this is full flavoured and juicy, but there is also a light powderyness in the mouth which I often get from pears. There are hints of other fruits here, soft dried fruits, little tangy and lovely stuff but not as good as the Ice Cider. A7 A5 T8 P4 Ov16 4.0
