It seems that American bakeries are using more and more almond—frangipane and marzipan—which, in my opinion, is a very welcome development. Almond croissants are now ubiquitous. Fruit tarts with frangipane filling, and even galettes des rois can be found behind the glass case with more regularity.
I’ve tried my hand at the last, using David Lebovitz’s recipe as inspiration. The difference in his is that he adds orange zest to the almond filling, giving a subtle citrus freshness to the galette’s otherwise rich core.
The Roberts’ Mâcon-Fuissé reminds me of that brilliant almond-tang infusion, only if you substitute lemon or lime zest for orange. This wine possesses a regal richness, but is balanced by mouthwatering citrus that is woven throughout.
