Our fellow locavores, the bees, create the honey. We ferment it, age it, infuse it with fruit and flowers and turn it into balanced honey wines with complex flavors and aromas.
2020 Red Scare
$36.95
750 mL Bottle
A multi-berry melomel. Whole, wild blueberries, organic blackberries and raspberries, and local, raw, unfiltered honey providing balance, structure, and long-deep flavors. This wine was aged in a French oak barrel for many months. A complex, dry wine with great aging potential. Enjoy on its own or with pork dishes or similar. Unfiltered.
Alcohol 13.5%
2021 Blackberry Mead
$19.95
375 ml Bottle
A surprisingly complex melomel, composed simply of blackberries and local wildflower honey. Complex briar patch aromas, with hints of pinecone and hay as if standing in the berry patch harvesting. Smooth, full mid-palate flavors of honey flow into big blackberry notes, following nicely from the aromas, and carrying through to a pleasingly astringent finish.

2021 Three Honey Wine
$16.95
375 mL Bottle
Three separate, raw, unfiltered, wildflower honeys are blended to make this special mead (honey wine): from Ken’s hives here in Sanbornton, from hives in the southern portion of New Hampshire and northeastern Mass. Each honey has a distinct character and contribution to the aromatic, light but intense, long lasting and complex flavors of this “show mead.”

2021 Three Honey Gold
$18.95
375 mL Bottle
Three separate, raw, unfiltered, wildflower honeys are blended to make this show mead, each with a distinct contribution to the aromatic, light but intense, long-lasting, complex flavors. The wine is then aged 12 months in a French oak barrel that previously held a fine red wine, concentrating the flavors and infusing a rich golden hue and complex depth to the mead.

2020 Flower Power
$19.95
375 ml Bottle
Three separate, raw, unfiltered, wildflower honeys are blended to make this wine. The wine was then split into separate containers and fresh-picked local wildflowers were submerged in the wine for a few months: elderflowers, and dandelion flowers. These flower-infused meads were then combined and aged in a small French oak barrel for many months. Unfiltered.
2016 Old Vine
$19.95
375 ml Bottle
Crafted from old vine Marachel Foch grapes grown without pesticides in Ken’s backyard combined with a bit of fresh raw honey from his bee hives. The wild yeast on the grapes contributes to the unique aromas and flavors of this engaging dry wine. Enjoy slightly chilled on its own or with wild game.
2021 Rosehip Mead
$19.95
375 mL Bottle
A rhodomel – composed of local wildflower honey and foraged rosehips. Bright acid finish follows a perfumy aroma of roses, dandelion, and gooseberry with smooth, medium weight mouthfeel provided by the fermented honey. Unlike any other grape-based wine, but perhaps reminiscent of some aspects of riesling and gewurztraminer.
