Mirabelle
Description: A small golden plum emblematic of the Lorraine region, the mirabelle is an exceptional fruit with a very short season. It is distinguished by its small size and its thin, orange-yellow skin dotted with red “freckles,” a sign of ripeness and sun exposure. Its flesh is juicy and melting, offering an incomparable honeyed flavor. While it is a perfect eating apple, it is also a staple in pastries and preserves. The PGI Mirabelle de Lorraine guarantees a harvest at peak ripeness and a high sugar content.
