Small Acres Sparkling Perry Medium Dry 2013, Orange, AUD $25-$26
Very light straw colour; a fine bead of bubbles. Fresh, clean appealing pear aromas, the palate flavours light and refreshing, delicate and delicious, with a faint trace of sweetness and no tannin grip. Relatively simple and short, but delicious. (Crown-cap)
