Wine and Caviar with Chateau Margaux Pavillon Blanc and White Sturgeon Caviar

Wine and Caviar

2010 Pavillon Blanc wine paired with White Sturgeon Caviar2010 Pavillon Blanc du Chateau Margaux wine is another example of where a rare wine meets a rare caviar. This is a white wine from the First Growth Chateau Margaux in Bordeaux and is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes for this wine are grown on an 11 hectare vineyard of Chateau Margaux. One third of the grapes are selected for this wine and the rest are sold off.This is one of the white wines that are age worthy. This is a 2010 vintage tasting fresh in 2017.

This pale straw gold colored wine has aromas of crushed flint,gooseberry and tropical fruits. On the palate there is also some herbaceous lemon. In its crisp finish there is an elegant balance of the herbs and tropical fruit.

With this pairing the elegance of the grassy tropical notes are brought to the forefront as the palate is cleansed. A good Lady Elena Caviar and wine pairing.

Wines of Crete to Begin the Summer

On this first day of summer, I am thinking of the Wines of Crete. Here you always find something fresh and exciting.

This 2016 Femina is just what the Lady is looking for on this warm summer day. The wine is made from the Malvasia grape variety and is produced by the Douloufakis Nikos Winery in Crete.
