Carm Reserva Branco Wine with White Sturgeon Caviar

2015 Carm Reserva Branco

Here is another good Portuguese wine pairing with caviar.

Carm Reserva Branca with Lady Elena CaviarThe Carm Familiy of Roboredo Madeira  winery is located on the sub appellation of Douro superior in the Douro appellation. The wine is a blend of Rabigato (50%), Viosinho (25%) and Codega (25%). Vinified in stainless steel but half is aged in French oak casks.
The wine has a pale straw color with green tints. The wine is full of fresh citrus with salty minerality and finishes with lively acidity, lime notes and some nuttiness.

Lady Elena Caviar Pairing

Americana (White Sturgeon): With this pairing the fresh citrus clears away the minerality and leaves your palate refreshed with some lingering citrus.
