About the Winery
In 1995 Gordon Hull began making sparkling wines from honey in a warehouse in Arcata, California. In 2012, Gordon transported the Heidrun Meadery to Point Reyes. Gordon’s expansion has allowed him to create a commercial beekeeping operation and experiment in the cultivation of bee-friendly high-yield nectar crops. Heidrun Meadery currently produces four kinds of mead from buckwheat blossom, Lehua blossom, orange blossom and raspberry blossom honey.

Tobin’s Review 2.5 out of 5
Heidrun Meadery Orange Blossom Mead has a light orange honey hue with sweet notes of orange blossom honey on the nose. The mead is smooth, sweet and has a slight acidity with flavors of honey, tart Granny Smith apple and orange blossom.
