Lindisfarne Mead
£13.99
Lindisfarne Mead is a traditional English mead produced on Holy Island in Northumberland using a historic recipe inspired by medieval monastic traditions. This fortified honey wine combines honey, fermented grape juice, herbs, and local water to create a smooth and distinctive drink with sweet honey richness balanced by gentle wine-like acidity. Light golden in colour, it offers a unique style that sits between dessert wine and classic mead, delivering soft sweetness, floral honey notes, and warming depth. Often referred to as “A Legend in a Glass,” Lindisfarne Mead is one of the UK’s most recognised traditional meads and is enjoyed lightly chilled or served after dinner.

The History of Finchley Wines
Finchley Wine — A Neighbourhood Wine Venture with Heart
Born from the passion of two wine enthusiasts, Finchley Wine is more than just a bottle shop. It is the result of five years of dreaming, planning, and sourcing with purpose.

Every detail of Finchley Wine reflects that vision. The space is thoughtfully designed with an organic, natural aesthetic and shelves filled with handpicked bottles from producers who care for their land as much as their craft. We call it wine design, a blend of taste, community, and creativity that turns every visit into an experience.
At Finchley Wine, you will find not only distinctive wines but also a welcoming space built on connection, sustainability, and local spirit.
