Heidrun Meadery

Heidrun Meadery is a California-based producer of naturally sparkling varietal meads, crafted using the traditional French Methode Champenoise technique. Located in Point Reyes Station, California, the winery has transformed a former dairy farm into a bee forage oasis, cultivating flowering plants to provide healthy, natural forage for their honey bee colonies. The meadery's unique and unparalleled Champagne-style of mead is light, dry, delicate, and refreshing, with subtle exotic aromas and flavors found only in the essence of honey. Heidrun Meadery's mission is to seek out communities that undertake beekeeping as a means of sustaining their people, cultures, ecosystems, and our shared planet; to discover new honey varieties in the farthest corners of this wondrously diverse green orb; and to reveal their discoveries as only they can – in sparkling, crisp, and refreshing honey wines. The winery's meadmaker, Gordon Hull, aims to reveal the distinguishing characteristics – the essence – of every honey they ferment, showcasing floral aromatic compounds that are normally accessible only to nature's pollinators. Visitors can experience Heidrun Meadery's tasting room, open Monday through Sunday from 11am to 5pm, and join Club Mead, a community celebrating the discovery of true meads since 1997.
