Tasting

Colour: Intense, brilliant golden.

Nose: Very expressive, revealing aromas of candied apricot, yellow peach, orange peel, honey, white flowers and subtle spicy and vanilla notes.

Palate: Unctuous, generous attack. Dense and silky texture, perfectly supported by a fresh acidity that balances the liqueur. Complex, elegant mid-palate, with flavours of candied fruit, honey, citrus fruit and sweet spices. Long, harmonious and persistent finish.

Scores :

- Wine Advocate: 93/100

- Vinous: 92/100

- James Suckling: 94/100

Suggested pairings

Ideal with foie gras, poultry with sweet and sour sauces (honey-roasted chicken, duck with orange sauce), blue-veined cheeses (Roquefort, Bleu d'Auvergne). It also goes very well with yellow or exotic fruit desserts (apricot tart, mango and pineapple salad), or with almonds and puff pastry.
