Little Pomona - Hard Rain Perry-quette 2021
Made from the second pressing of grapes and perry pears with the addition of water, this is Little Pomona's modern interpretation of an old historic drink – one they are calling perry-quette. We also like to think of it as upcycling pomace! Made from three grape varieties – Bacchus, Solaris, and Seyval Blanc — together with two French varieties of perry pears, co-fermented spontaneously and bottled as a pét nat. Hazy blue/green in colour, it’s super tropical and grapey on the nose. With a cool, herby edge and creaminess coming from the perry pears plus juicy citrus from the grapes, it’s been made uber-moreish and joyfully crushable by some glorious funky acid. Hot days just got cooler! Tart and refreshing with a soft essence of perry pears. Slightly acetic, with additional flavor notes of green grape skins, watermelon rinds, fresh rain, and cucumber. No added sulfites.
