Planters Ridge Winery

The meadery operates its own apiaries. They manage the bees and the land, ensuring total control from flower to bottle.

An Ethiopian honey wine fermented with gesho (a woody shrub) rather than hops or standard yeast.

Focuses on regionality and expression of place; using only honey, water, and adjuncts sourced from a specific geographic radius. Emphasizes single-region honey sourcing, minimal blending across regions, restraint in adjuncts that override origin, and emphasis on floral and environmental expression.

Known for producing meads with experimental flavors.

Specializes in reviving ancient or cultural mead traditions and recipes.

Mead that is intentionally carbonated, either through secondary fermentation or forced carbonation.

Sources honey within a very tight radius of where the mead is produced and consumed.

Light herbal floral, slightly savory, clean dry finish
