Oliver's Lost & Found - 6.6%

Oliver's Lost & Found

Cromwell

6.6% abv

Around 12 years ago we decided to try our hand at wine and purchased two tons of Italian red wine grapes. To cut a long story short the wine was fine but not really a viable option for cider producers and the last few barrels were pushed to the back of the cellar and forgotten. Until last year that is, when we decided to put it into Bag in Box so that it could be dispensed basically for domestic consumption. Asking yourself what’s this to do with cider? Well one of the barrels was filled with cider not red wine. We have no idea how or when it was brewed or what apples were used, who needs Quality Control anyhow. The good news; the cider is well matured, clearly from a vintage year and knocking the spots off our current ciders on flavour. Limited stocks so enjoy while you can.
