Bastianich Adriatico Friulano Paired with Kaluga Caviar

2012 Bastianich Adriatico Friulano

Background

The wine is from the DOC Colli Orientali Del Friuli and is made from 100% Friuliano grape.

The wine has a pale gold color. There are flowery aromas of ripe pears with almonds and a salty
minerality. There is biting acidity on the palate with a full body oily feel. The fruit is also picking up some spicy mint notes. The finish has some white pepper to it and finishes clean.

Lady Elena Caviar Pairing

The 8th Pearl Caviar (Kaluga Hybrid Sturgeon): As the wine covers over the caviar, the sweetness of the pear softens and there is a lifting up of the mineralness of the caviar for a brief time. A great caviar and champagne pairing.

The wine has a pale straw color with green tints. There are aromas of stony minerals with lime and sweet apricot. On the palate it is lively with its biting acidity. There is a touch of sweetness here but balanced with the soft minerality. The finish is dry and minerally soft while filled with lime and mouth watering acidity. There is the right amount of sweetness to show some fruit in the wine while keeping the wine a dry Riesling.

softened fruit flavors and then cleanses the palate with a bone dry finish. A great Lady Elena Caviar and wine pairing.
