Ancient Mead

Ancient Mead Wine Details
Price:

Description: Mead dates back to Phoenician times, 2,000 BC. Eons ago, it is likely that comb honey, water and wild yeast combined naturally as rain drizzled into a beehive nestled in a tree hollow. Sunlight provided the warmth, time did its magic, and men and women alike, to their great pleasure, discovered mead. With Ancient Mead, Medovina seeks to emulate the natural process by which honey, yeast and water are transformed into mead: the nectar of the gods. Ancient Mead is a no nonsense, intense mead. It is dominated by alcoholic, earthy flavors with hints of nuts and yeast. A great compliment to rich food like beef and game, it will be available in either Dry or Off Dry finishes.

Varietal Definition
