Snow Capped Cider - Winter Pear Perry (375 mL)
Snow Capped Cider - Winter Pear Perry (375 mL)
Snow Capped Cider's Winter Pear Perry is made from a blend of D'anjou, Bosc, Comice, and winter pears handpicked from 70-year-old Colorado pear trees. Winter pears are stored 3-5 weeks to adequately ripen, then juiced and fermented cold and slow and returned to cold storage for aging. The journey ends with bold carbonation and delicate soft pear sweetness. Notes of juicy ripe pear, vanilla, strawberry, and twig, with light floral notes and a super soft mouthfeel of tiny bubbles.
About Snow Capped Cider: Kari Williams' family has owned the orchards she now manages for more than 5 generations - though she's the first to use the apples for cider. Snow Capped Cider is crafted at an impressive elevation of 6,130 feet, making it one of the highest-elevation orchards and cideries in the world. Nestled at the base of the Grand Mesa - the largest flat-topped mountain in the world - on Colorado’s Western Slope. Their unique terroir benefits from high altitude, warm days, cool nights, and gravity-fed mountain water - which impacts the fruit in such a way that makes for excellent ciders. Their cider apples are grown exclusively in Colorado, adhering to traditional English and French orchard practices. Committed to sustainability, they craft high-quality ciders using sustainable farming practices, making Snow Capped Cider a zero-waste company.
Snow Capped has been on an impressive run the last few years at various Cider competitions, winning several awards for many of their recent releases.
