Sky River Meadery

Sky River Meadery

Sky River Meadery was established in 1997, and released her first wines in 1999. Mead, or honeywine, is an ancient form of winemaking, with roots throughout Europe, Africa and Asia. Our goal at Sky River Mead is to reintroduce the world to exquisite mead and honey wine, all while making them more approachable and food friendly. With hints of berries, pears, apples and grassy fields, Mead is the ancient drink of kings and poets – ascribed with bringing poetry, virility and wit. The gods, from Mount Olympus to Valhalla, were believed to drink mead – garnering from it strength, poetry and passion. Sky River Meads, lighter and dryer than their ancient counterparts, balance beautifully with the foods of today, from around the world - curries and chutneys, salsa's and ginger. Sky River is a woman-owned Washington winery and is proud to be among the older wineries in state. The finest Washington Honey is selected for Sky River Mead, as well as the finest Washington fruit for the Sky River Raspberry Honey Wine. Slainte!
