Finnriver Farm and Cidery - Perry (750 mL)
Finnriver Farm & Cidery's Perry is a a Traditional Perry inspired by the French perries of Normandy. Made with a blend of perry pears including Hendre Huffcap, Yellow Huffcap, Romanian pear varieties - all grown on Finnriver’s organic orchard and wildcrafted seedling pears from the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.
2025 Northwest Cider Cup Silver Medal for the High Tannin Perry category.
Tasting Notes: Aromatics of pear, floral, twig, orchard floor and light oak. Semi-dry, bright, and thirst-quenching. Candy pear and fresh pear notes at start of pallet are washed away by notes of citrusy key lime and juicy acidity. Tannins rush the mid-pallet which dries out the mouthfeel and leaves a pleasant linger of lemon zest, floral notes and hints of perry pear juice.
This well-balanced Finnriver Perry is wonderful with lighter fare — grilled chicken, fresh goat cheese, antipasti platters, and dinner salads full of spicy young greens.
CIDERMAKER NOTES: Fermented primarily from Finnriver organically grown traditional perry pears. As with cider apples, special pear varieties are used to make Perry, which are higher in tannin and acid than eating or cooking pears. Perry pears are thought to be descended from wild hybrids, known as wildings, brought to northern Europe by the Romans. Perry pears often have higher levels of sugar than cider apples, including unfermentable sugars such as sorbitol, which can give the finished drink a residual sweetness. After fermentation, we also add organic cane sugar to round out the acidity and balance the strong astringent tannins.
