Pips Meadery — NN Wildflower

Technical Details

Tasting Profile

NN Wildflower pours with the deep, golden warmth characteristic of Pips Meadery’s celebrated melomels, this expression built on a wildflower honey base rather than their signature orange blossom. The nose unfolds with layered florals, ripe raspberry, black currant, and hints of cherry and plum. On the palate, lush honey sweetness carries waves of stone fruit, peach, and bramble berries, framed by gentle vanilla warmth. Residual sweetness lingers without weighing down the finish, balanced by bright fruit acidity. A decadent, dessert-leaning melomel that rewards slow sipping and showcases the meadery’s fruit-forward, artisanal mastery.

Food Pairing

Pair with a creamy washed-rind cheese like Taleggio or Époisses, where the honey and fruit notes cut through richness beautifully. Alternatively, serve alongside a dark chocolate raspberry torte or almond frangipane tart, letting the melomel’s berry sweetness echo the dessert while vanilla and honey complement the baked confection.
