They say that lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place but Once In A Lifetime 2 is an exception that may just prove the rule! Like its predecessor, we moved young Egremont Russet cider from the exceptional 2021 vintage into ex-white burgundy barrels to mature with truly beautiful results.
Translucent pale yellow with green highlights, this is sweetly aromatic like frangipane, but with subtle mint and ripe melon hints too. It's plushly textured with mouthwatering acidity, and a complex flavour journey visits ripe kiwi, lemon oil, cantaloupe melon and nectarine, finishing with that classic, russet nuttiness.
It's a beautiful match with creamy soft cheeses, chicken or fish cooked with herbs, or lightly spiced roast cauliflower. And perhaps at its best with sushi or oysters.
