Put this picture in your mind … a hot summer day is ending. You’re sitting on the back deck and relaxing as the soon-to-be sunset begins to turn the far-off clouds red.

It’s time for a glass of Pear wine.

It’s smooth and sweet. Pear is a subtle fruit, not overpowering on the palate. But its good taste is so pleasant and rich with sugars. The voluptuous feel in your mouth and jammy ease of drinking makes it hard to have only one glass. Serve well chilled with soft or semi-soft cheeses and French bread or crackers.

The finish is long and silky. Now is the time to pick up the glass and watch the sunset through the wine. Ah, life is good.
