CHAUCER'S Raspberry Mead
The flavor of this wine explodes with raspberry and honeysuckle. The wine is a blend of our Mead and a small portion of our Raspberry Wine. Less sweet than our regular Mead, this wine finishes with a lingering crisp raspberry and honeysuckle impression. The raspberries for this wine are locally grown from Driscoll's berry growers in Watsonville, CA. The honey used to make Chaucer's Mead is a blend of alfalfa, orange blossom, sage and mountain wildflower collected from our local bee keepers in Northern California. This elegant dessert-style wine is produced from 85% honey wine and 15% raspberry wine. A blend of fruit such as raspberry is known as Melomel. This blend of fruit and honey has been enjoyed for centuries. Although this wine exhibits richness similar to a fine liqueur, this dessert-style beverage is not fortified and contains only 11% alcohol. To enjoy the full qualities of this wine, it should be consumed shortly after purchase. *Raspberry Mead comes in a 500ml bottle.
