Our best selling fruit liqueur! A divine pear liqueur, enhanced by a Massenez pear eau-de-vie aged for more than 8 years... Enjoy tasting Golden Eight in its amber color with hints of warm, reddish gold; a divine promise of a truly great liqueur... Right from the beginning, as soon as you open the bottle, the powerful, warm fragrance of perfectly ripe Williams pear is released with an inkling of warm, gourmet notes make it very tempting to taste. And then... A sweet symphony emerges, generous and sensual, with all the aromas of a freshly picked pear, almost candied or in the form of jam, before revealing delicate, caramelized vanilla notes, merging into the light cascades of the eau-de-vie that brought it to life: a Massenez Pear Liqueur aged for more than 8 years. A unique, exclusive signature of the Massenez distillery since 1870, the recipe for which has been a closely guarded secret among master liquorists. Preferably to be enjoyed chilled or on ice. Appearance: golden with caramel hues. Nose: pleasing, very pleasant, expressive, very open to the fruit. Palate: very generous, well balanced, rounded. Lively attack, crunching fruit, persistent freshness. Fruity structure. Rounded development. Lovely persistence. Very harmonious finish, enchanting for the palate. Comments: remarkable quality, a real indulgence.

Region: Alsace

The region of Alsace, between France and Germany, is one of the most historically and viticulturally fascinating regions in the world, and produces several famous and widely loved wines which are very much the combined essence of these two important Old World wine countries. Vintners in Alsace have had centuries to perfect their wines, made with the native grape varietals which thrive successfully in the cooler climate, and produce a range of wines which have long been considered amongst the finest in the world. Riesling, Pinot Noir, Gewurztraminer and Sauvignon Vert (formerly known as Tokay d'Alsace) varietal grapes are all commonly and widely grown in the region, with these particular varietals most highly prized by vintners due to their ability to express the excellence of the Alsatian terroir.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
