Aeternus – 22/05/13: A pleasing wine, indulgent and refreshing. As for its sensory profile, everything has been done to develop a wine that is indulgent “to please people who will drink it for dessert on a fruit tart, or alone for an aperitif.”
On the nose, Brut d’Éole reveals aromas of citrus, subtle candied fruits, crushed fresh strawberries and apricots.

BlindTaste34 – July 17th, 2018: The Garden of Eden was filled with lush and varied vegetation, and it also housed the Tree of Life, which provided plentiful and delicious fruit to fulfill the needs of Adam and Eve. This earthly paradise was fed by a prodigious water source that sprang from the ground before falling in fine droplets on the vegetation.
The robe is apricot-pink with coppery reflections.
The bouquet exhibits refinement with its fragrances of red currant and quinine in a Garden of Eden with freshly cut grass. On the palate, the fine bubbles burst to release a wine that is full of tension and particularly invigorating. Roundness and indulgence will wait to appear until the reinforcement of raspberry and strawberry, which will end up uniting with a sculptural kumquat in retro-nasal olfaction. The finish will reveal its forbidden fruit in the form of a delicious St Genix covered in red pralines.
If you wish to enjoy this nectar in a heavenly location with friends, it will be excellent company.
