Bottle from Chemins de Bretagne, Paris
Vintage 2006
It pours a beautiful golden color, still. The honey aroma is flowery and soapy. Sweet mead, with strong honey flavor; the mouthfeel becomes a bit astringent (tannic) in the end; this soft feeling may be due to the ageing in casks. Hints of alcohol in the end. Straight-forward sweet French Mead, highly drinkable even if not impressive.
