Corked bottle from Gardian des Elfes, Yverdon, Switzerland
Cuvée VCD 090324
Measured Final Gravity: 1020
Hazy yellow color, with an old hue. Mild honey and Mead aroma, with some comforting alcohol. Sweet flavor without being syrupy, as promised; some woody trace and mild tannins in the end; less complex than the drier Meads from this Cave, but very pleasant.

Hazy yellow color, with a pink and old view. The aroma is mild, vinous and slightly oxidized. The mouthfeel is semi-dry, only the Vieux Sec is drier; good and complex Mead flavor, with mild honey, traces of wood, light oxidization, and warming alcohol feeling. Good.

Synthetic cork bottle from Chemins de Bretagne, Paris
Dragon Cuvee Dr071214
Measured Final Gravity: 1019
Golden color. Deep aroma of honey, but also fruity, with seducing alcohol, and minimal woody notes. The mouthfeel is semi-sweet, with honey flavor, light oxidization, a hidden fruity vein; the final carries a mild astringency from the tannins. Very good.
