(750ml bottle from the cidery webshop) Pours clear deep gold to murky blush (depending on sediment) with no head. Aroma of tangy pear, underripe peach, floral white grape and melon, red berries, herbs, aromatic conifers, saline minerals, touch of that chemical twang some pears have (which I could do without, but oddly is influenced by background aromas). Flavour is quite tart but rich pear, again tones of pit fruit, lively but not overly sour volatile acidity, some sweetish lemon or grapefruit juice lactic quality, hints of white grape and tart yellow cherry, softening into the finish with some melon and light grapefruit pulp, herbal accents from the Cab Franc lees, very soft funk to it. Still a nice acidic sting in the finish and aftertaste. Light to medium-bodied, oily, slightly frizzante. Creative and interesting with good complexity, though I found it something to drink in moderation despite the low ABV vs true wine.
