Color: Gold

Nose: Freshly baked croissants laced with rich frangipane, served alongside sweet, juicy pears and a dollop of vanilla cream. A zesty, sweet spoonful of lemon curd with swirls of soft honeysuckle.

Palate: Rounded. Lemon and vanilla are complemented by lovely, ripe pears. Baking spices provide a subtle, peppery structure in the background – complete with cinnamon, allspice, and clove.

Finish: As the sweetness fades, spice remains, along with the oils from a freshly zested lemon.
