Low Tannin Perry

Low tannin perries may have a tannin profile that ranges from negligible to moderate. These perries are often made from dessert or culinary pears but may be of any variety that fits this profile. Due to the unfermentable sorbitol present in pears, residual sweetness may be present in fully fermented perry.

High-scoring entries will exhibit pear character and balance. Very slight acetification is acceptable. Ropey/oily characters are serious faults.

Common Appearance: Slightly cloudy to clear. Generally quite pale.

Common ABV Range: 5-7%

Commonly Used Varieties: Bartlett, Kiefer, Comice, Conference, and Seckel.
