Something which is mellow is soft, rich and free from harshness, particularly where our senses are involved. If we’re mellow, we’re either softened by age and experience – or by alcohol! (A nice mellow shiraz, perhaps?)

When describing fruit it meand soft, sweet and juicy. Mellow soil is rich and loamy.
