This 2001 Reserve, our first, is creating quite a stir. It’s warming, dense, velvety, sinful, luscious, sweet and like nothing you’ve ever had. We create this only once a year and it truly represents the best Redstone makes. Black raspberry puree has been added to three honeys and then ‘The Love’ was blended in. Every sip is a taste explosion that will do any appreciator proud.

Sample from a 2001 bottle at the Mead Molehill tasting on 01/10/2011. Clear amber color with ruby highlights. Minimal head and lacing. Aroma of berries and honey. Medium body with flavors of black cherry, berries and sweet honey. The finish is fruity and lingers awhile. Good overall.
