Favorite Wine: Raspberry Mead

Rohan Meadery owners, the Rohans, hosted a tasting at Texas Vineyards and Beyond in Fredericksburg. I tasted only a couple of their meads (honey wine, 67% honey, 33% grape). As you might imagine, their meads are unusual with a heavy honey taste. I first tried the classic plain mead; rather sweet, not a strong flavor. I did not try, but was told the orange mead was very dry, and maybe I would like to try the raspberry mead, their most popular one? I tried it. It was very nice and I purchased a bottle. The Rohans are delightful advocates of mead, which beverage is uncommon these days. The flavor takes some getting used to, but is distinct and not unpleasant.
