Eau Devin

Fortified wine

Eau Devin is made from the Acolon grape, and contains 18% alcohol.

This fortified wine is made of eau de vie de vin or wine spirit. ‘Eau Devin’ is said to give you the talents of a ‘devin’ or a fortune-teller.

Aperitif, e.g.: in combination with tonic, or as a dessert with fruit or cheese of character.
