The pear eau de vie really shines through on the finish, adding a subtle sweetness that balances the dry botanicals beautifully. Sipped it chilled over ice with a twist of lemon and it was dangerously easy to finish the bottle in one evening.

The Bacchus wine base gives it a lovely crispness that I didn’t expect from an aperitif, and the wild botanicals add just enough complexity without being overpowering. Sipped it chilled before dinner and it was dangerously easy to finish the bottle.

The pear eau de vie gives it such a delicate sweetness, and it plays beautifully with the Bacchus wine’s crispness. I’ve been sipping it over ice before dinner and it’s become my favorite way to start the evening.
