EuroCave: new smartphone and tablet application

A year a half after launching its application, available on Apple and Android, and with over 27,000 downloads worldwide, Eurocave, leader of the wine storing and serving market, has brought out a brand new version. The company has improved the application’s functionalities by taking o boad comments and requests made by users of the first version.

Free, convenient and secure : these are the buzzwords of the new version of the EuroCave application. The idea is to allow users to manage their wine cabinet. Users are asked to enter all of the bottles that they store in the wine cabinet. For each wine, they can create a “sheet” in which they enter the bottle’s criteria: name, producers, vintages, grape varieties, date wine will be suitable for drinking or any personal comments. Thereafter, they virtually organise their cabinet. When a wine has reached its prime, usersare notified and told that the bottle is ready for drinking. In addition to allowing stock management, the application also provides a record of wines already drunk. The application allows users to share their favourite wines and make comments about them on social networks. An opportunity for all wine lovers to meet virtually and exchange information about their experiences. The application also provides advice on how to use your cabinet. This virtual wine cellar book allows users to manage their wine cabinet like experts !

Courrèges and Air France have chosen to celebrate La fille de l’air together. La fille de l’air is an airy fragrance with clear, sharp lines like a Courrèges dress: an essence of sparkling, zesty bergamot, full of spirit, and a sublime and rare heart, an addictive sunny orange blossom, made from an exceptional flower. From 1st June 2015, la fille de l’air will be exclusively available on Air France flights, as an allusion to the journeys that were the springboard for Courrèges’ development all over the world… on Air France already. With la fille de l’air, Air France has been seduced by the olfactory journey proposed by Courrèges. The Company has recognized the woman evoked by the scent – a woman in movement, with a subtle elegance – as the one that graces its routes.
