Review from online: "My friend go to the vineyard in bloomington and brought me one bottle of camelot and Oh my gosh how delicious! Now is my favorite over the soft red and lime" -OliverFan(https://www.oliverwinery.com/wine/camelot-mead/camelot-mead)

Wine Folly Notes: "Traminette is related to Gewürztraminer and produces white wines with jasmine and spice notes (nutmeg, black pepper, cinnamon). Purdue University has a wine grape team that supports Indiana wine grape growers with research on French-hybrid viticulture and enology in the Midwest."

My review: light and sweet, spreads through my tongue softly. Not overwhelmingly sweet, but the honey definitely comes though, as does a certain freshness. 9/10.
