Bottle at Craigs big Edinburgh tasting, I picked this bottle up at The Hop Pocket, Bishops Frome, Herefordshire. Shared in company of Craig, Stella, Jan, Charlotte, Fritz and Loz 30.10.10 This is really fizzy in fact it’s very much like a champagne, I think that it zapped Charlotte and Jan with a rush of bubbles up the nose when they went to sniff at it. I’m not sure that I could tell if the Blakeney Red Pears but once the carbonation subsides a little in the mouth there is a wonderful soft pearness there but this is a little dryer than a typical S/V of that pear would be. It’s quite pricey at £10 a bottle however it would make a great alternative to Champagne and I thoroughly enjoyed it though wouldn’t have wanted too much. A6 A5 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8
