I was racking some peach wine and blueberry mead this morning and started wondering.
Has anyone compared the taste of a mead and a country wine made with the same type of fruit?
 
The honey adds flavors from the honey and with a melomel you should be able to taste the honey even if that honey is wildflower or clover. Melomels that taste only of the fruit are really wasting the honey. You can get the same flavor profile if you fermented with table sugar.
