Brewing A Good commercial Mead

I've been brewing beer for a while, and I'm thinking of trying mead. I've read Schramm's book, and I think I'm ready to try a batch. Especially since the twins are on the way, and Matt suggested it was a quicker alternative to making beer   

I would like to try some commercial examples, but don't know where to start. I tried a semi-sweet a couple years ago, but have no idea what maker it was. I wasn't overly pleased with it, but I wonder if either it was a bad example or was sitting on the liquor store shelf for way too long.

I'm looking for dry to semi-sweet, and would love to try some interesting melomel if they are available commercially. Any suggestions? I live in New Mexico, and we don't always have the best selection, so if there is a place on-line where I can order, that might help as well.

Thanks!
johnathan
