It is pale gold in hue with hints of green. The nose is complex - orange flowers with the merest
hint of honey-dew, candied citrus notes, madeleine buns warm from the oven. The palate is
inordinately fine, long and straight as an arrow, bridling with energy yet restrained and precisely
poised. Like the blade of a samurai sword as it slices clean through a stem, the flower soaring
high, then falling softly through the air. Salon 2002 is a great romantic, but also armed for battle!
Its strength and audacity give it the balance of a classical dancer.
