Fortified mead from #PasdeCalais #France: NV : http://tinyurl.com/3qjhotd

Wine name: Lucas. Producer: LUCAS Didier, 93 Rue de Cassell, 59940 Neuf-Berquin. Vintage: NV. Purchased from “vineyard”. Appearance of pale amber. The attack is very dense and heavy yet with a creamy texture. Evolution: Quickly becoming fresh and fruity with an aftertaste of dried cranberries with a finish which is dried exotic fruits on swallow and in nose. Sweetness: 3. Acidity: 3. Tannin: 0 with a texture which is very thick & syrupy and the length is excellent. As for balance, it's very nice, the smell is nothing like the taste and the denseness is beautifully balanced by fresh fruit. The wine has a synthetic closure and is 18% abv. Overall, this wine is delicious! Definitely one to buy again!. My score is 90 points.
