The champagne of the Gulf Islands: a naturally sparkling tribute to the rare and wonderful heirloom pear trees that have grown on Pender Island since the late 1800's. Pressed from an assortment of higher-acid winter pears such as the European Pound pear and many unknown cultivars, this has a light and elegant, Chardonnay-like profile with natural residual Sweetness. Notes of crème fraîche and lemon zest.

Harvest 2021.

Each bottle underwent a secondary in-botte fermentation and lenathy sur lie aging before being hand-riddled and disgorged in the traditions.

750ml shared with Phill @ Matt's new place. Appearance: clear blonde with a wheak white head. Aroma: dry, crispy, apples. Taste: along the same lines with some funky notes, quite bubbly. Overall: good one.

750mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a quickly-dissipating, large white head. Aroma is very bright, with lots of champagne-like effervescence, wild yeast, and very crisp, dry pear skins. Flavour is very pungent, bright and crisp, with lots of crisp pear skins, champagne-like effervescence, light lemon zest, and a touch of barnyard funk. Bright, champagne-like, a bit boozy on the finish. Very nice.
