Joao Portugal Ramos Loureiro and Alvarinho Wines with White Sturgeon Caviar

The Lady has found a pair of new wine pairings with wines from Joao Portugal Ramos Wines.

Pairing #1

2015 Joao Portugal Ramos Loureiro

This wine is made from 85% Loureiro and 15% Alvarinho from the region of Vinho Verde and is fermented in all stainless steel tanks.

The wine has a pale straw color. There are floral aromas of  fresh ripe citrus with mineral tones. On the palate there is mineral infused juicy citrus. The finish is soft and crisp. Good so far and now for the pairing.

Lady Elena Caviar Pairing

Americana Caviar (White Sturgeon):There is this fine blending of the fruit with the creaminess of the caviar with a mineral backbone. A great Lady Elena Caviar and Wine Pairing.

Pairing #2

2015 Joao Portugal Ramos Alvarinho

This wine is 100% Alvarinho.It was (10%) partially fermented in new French oak barrels and the remainder was fermented in stainless steel tanks.

The wine has a straw color with  fresh aromas of rounded limes and grapefruits. This roundness continues on the palate. The wine finishes with refreshing acidity.


Lady Elena Caviar Pairing

Americana Caviar (White Sturgeon):With this pairing the pure flavors of the fruit shine through and leave your palate refreshed. A great Lady Elena Caviar and Wine Pairing.
