After experimenting and based on experimead#3, this is our newest mead of our standard range.

Many kilo's of blackcurrants married with mead and aged for 10 months in a red wine barrel.

It's also one of the best songs of our good friends from the band Mooneye

Pours an intensely dark, yet clear, red. Scent is intense, syrupy even, on the barrels. Very mild honey base, providing some depth. Taste is mildly tart due to the berries, providing some tannins as well, dryness towards the end - over a medium dry (seemingly) meadbase - which is a bit overpowered by the berries. Barrel profile is mild, hidden even. Very intense, fruit favored melomel.
