Texas Honey Wine – Yepez Family Vineyards; Baytown, Texas

Sweet things can come in small bottles!  Try this one as a standalone to get the full feel of the experience.  The deep golden color can be an eye catcher, but the intense floral aromas will be the first thing that you’ll quickly notice after opening.  This wine is delightfully sweet, but not syrupy. Though this is a honey wine, don’t prejudge based on prior mead experiences, as this is decidedly different in taste. Though there is a lovely sweetness, this does translate to the palate more like wine verses mead. Try it chilled if you want a cool hot summer dessert treat.  Mead lovers should also approve, but this would also fit well with sweet wine lovers. This time of year, it definitely pairs nicely with falls tasty spiced desserts. Enjoy!
