RED WILLIAM PEARS 800g
Red William Pears - Premium French Fruit 700g
Origin: Loire Valley, France
These exquisite Red William pears showcase a stunning ruby-red skin that transitions to a buttery yellow-green flesh. Carefully grown in the ideal conditions of the Loire Valley, they develop the perfect balance of sweetness and subtle spice notes characteristic of this prized variety, while their striking colour makes them an elegant addition to any fruit bowl.
With their exceptionally juicy texture and sophisticated flavour profile, Red Williams offer a harmonious blend of honeyed sweetness, delicate floral notes and a hint of warm spice. Their smooth, buttery flesh contains less grit cells than many other pear varieties, providing a refined eating experience with a rich perfume that fills the room when fully ripe.
Perfect eaten fresh as a luxurious snack, they also excel in elegant desserts like tarte Tatin or poached in wine with vanilla and cinnamon. Pair with blue cheeses like Roquefort or aged cheddars for a sophisticated cheese course.
Ripening Information: To ensure these exceptional fruits reach you in perfect condition, we harvest them just before they reach full ripeness. Upon delivery, please remove them from packaging and allow to ripen at room temperature for a few days. The fruit is ready to enjoy when it yields slightly to gentle pressure and releases a sweet aroma. Once ripe, refrigerate to extend their perfect eating window for up to five additional days.
Producer: Our Red Williams are sourced from specialist growers in the Loire Valley who have perfected the cultivation of this distinctive variety. Their orchards benefit from the region's ideal combination of warm days, cool nights and well-draining soils, producing pears with exceptional colour development and flavour concentration. These dedicated farmers employ traditional growing methods alongside modern sustainable practices to ensure consistently superior fruit.
