Item Description
This set of (2) R. Nicoll Honey Wines includes:
- Dry Wildflower Honey Mead, $13
- No So Dry Wildflower Honey Mead, $14
- Both made in Maine from wildflower honey!
These are 'honey forward' wines. Dry and Not So Dry. These wines exhibit a calm, direct style of winemaking that lets Maine's honey speak for itself.
The honey season is quite short in Maine so the bees have to really work. The positive news is that Maine has many flowering trees and wildflowers at the edge of every field you see here. A man who had lived in Georgia and then moved to Maine told me that he had not seen in Georgia the profusion of flowers and bushes blossoming all at once that he saw here in Maine. These wines contain the essence of Maine's abundant wild blossoming nectar plants. The honey flavors are bright and clean, mellow and smooth. Both wines are recommended for serving chilled in the summertime. And for the evening after a crisp winter day Not So Dry as a mulled wine will really take off the chill!
The Not So Dry is very juicy sweet and full of Maine's premium wildflower honey. The Dry is just that; the epitome of a classy dry mead.
As a beekeeper and winemaker these meads are crafted to retain "Maximum Bee Mojo". This is what mead should taste like!
One of a kind and crafted with care!
