Mallee Honey Mead (11% Alc/vol) is a dessert wine. Exquisite and exclusive, with delicate buttery flavours.

Mallee is a deep rooted hardy Eucalypt tree, standing up to the ravages of drought and bushfire.It produces a light honey of subtle flavour perfect for mead making.

Since medieval times mead was thought to enhance virility and fertility. Believed to have aphrodisiac qualities it made its way into wedding ceremonies. The word honeymoon seems to have stemmed from an Irish tradition of newly weds drinking honey wine every day for one full moon (a month) after their wedding.

Glenbernie Orchard has been operating since 1939.

Recently we have developed our award-winning apple cider, apple cider vinegar and honey mead, which can be enjoyed at the Apple Shack. Farm experience tours get you a back door look at the world of orcharding - bookings are essential.
