Fig pie is just good.


Just visit the market of Pézenas on Saturday morning to fill up with seasonal products.
Currently on the stalls the fig is in honor, purple or green, round and fleshy with delicate fragrance.


Cooks can prepare them as they enter on a crouton of country bread and pelardon.
Confites with a Challans duck as a main dish, but I'll have them preferred in pie with crushed almonds and cream unsweetened whipped.


For this occasion I open a bottle of Maury.

The fudge of the estate Serre Romani from Laurent Pratx to Espira de l'Agly. Dark dress and violet nose. Aromas of black cherry, cocoa, violet. Ample but fresh and on a delicate finish.

It's just good.
