This light, sweet wine can be drunk in a variety of ways; as an aperitif, straight, as a dessert wine or after a meal with a fine piece of Suffolk Gold Cheese.
Equally good served mulled with spices.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 21/09/21. Pale washed out blonde with some bubbles that cling to the edge. Nose is honey, sugars, floral, light herb. Taste comprises sugars, honeycomb, floral, light herb, Full bodied, oily complexion, semi drying close with a rising kiss of alcohol. Decent enough mead ... not super sweet either.

Panda 🐼 at home thanks to SHIG. A Clear pale petrol coloured pour with no head. Aroma is semi sweet, earthy honey, white chocolate, some white raisin. Flavour is composed of medium sweet, honey, melon, white raisin, white grape. Warming alcohol but it hides it well. Palate is medium sweet, smooth, oily, slick. Good.
