A Smile of Fortune is a dark fruit melomel containing Black Currants, Lutowka Cherries, Heritage Red Raspberries and Oregon Boysenberries. Intensely bold fruits balance their tart, tannic, and acidic flavors with the sweetness of high quality, responsibly sourced honey. Fortune truly smiled upon this mixed fruit melomel, and we are grateful for the result. Pairs beautifully with fresh young cheeses, pork, or chocolate.

Magus, marjane, veits paberine, kirsine, vaarikane, mustsõstar. Väga hea, kuigi paberine noot häirib.

Sample from bottle @ Pien Shop, Helsinki. Smooth, sweet and heavy with oak, berry juice, raspberries, honey, cherries and blackcurrant notes. Quite intense and complex, sweet slow sipper dessert. Nice one.

FLN, nice berries on berries on berries, interesting smoothie nose. Definitely one of the jammier schramms I've had.
