The story behind this wine

Inspired by the Presto blend, Eïdos aims for purity — as close as possible to what it gathers: the mineral, the vegetal. Clay, its birthplace, unveils the essence of each grape variety and the character of the vintage. Hence the name Eïdos, a philosophical concept designating what is seen — the form, the appearance of a thing — our perception, our vision, and what we can know of it.

EÏDOS — Eïdos — what is seen: form, appearance, perception

Tasting notes

An expressive, saline, long and decidedly present wine. A nuanced nose from floral to herbaceous with a lovely toasty touch; on the palate, the rich and multi-layered substance of the vintage is held by a taut structure and a very iodic finish.

Food pairings

Seafood with substance: grilled lobster, scallops with butter, sea urchin, langoustines
Raw oysters, of course, but also warm preparations like a seafood gratin
Character fish: turbot, halibut, monkfish

Serve at 10–12°C
