Dakota Pear Wine

Pears grow in North Dakota? Yes they do and they make a very unique wine that our tasting group simply loves! These are smaller than the store bought pears. More detailed description of this limited wine below. Serve chilled.

Pears are very difficult to grow in North Dakota. It seems they blossom early so either a late frost prevents them from producing, or the more realistic explanation is that there is no pollination mechanism at that time of the year in North Dakota. Without pollination, no fruit. 2007 was a great fruit year in North Dakota and now we have an opportunity to share it with our friends across the country. These pears were gorgeous when they came in. About the 3/4 the size of store bought pears, with a beautiful reddish tint to the skin. We fermented the pears on the skins to hold that color. WOW! A very romantic wine. A little hint of citrus but very mellow. I would enjoy this wine chilled again and again.
