What is Osciètre caviar?

Oscietra caviar varies in colour from deep black to golden brown, it has a bold initial attack and an exceptional aromatic complexity making it a top-of-the-range caviar and a great favourite with connoisseurs.

It also differs from Baeri caviar in that its texture is creamier overall, it is more generously sized and slightly less firm on the palate.

As a French caviar producer, Prunier has explored the Acipenser Gueldenstaedtii sturgeon in depth, to help you discover the different nuances in flavour.

Discover our collection of 100% French Oscietra caviar, from our Aquitaine bred sturgeon. Each caviar is the result of the same savoir-faire, passed down by the Maison for over 150 years.

Michelin 3-star chef Yannick Alléno's favourite caviar.

Prunier Oscietra Caviar, or ""Ossetra"", is the Michelin 3-star Chef, Yannick Alléno's favourite: ""Oscietra is my favourite caviar. Its delicate feel and floral, nutty notes are striking on the palate when eaten chilled. It's a caviar with a flavour that develops over time.""

Oscietra can be eaten at various stages of ripening, from a few weeks for a mild caviar to several months for an intense, complex caviar. It resembles the fuller-bodied caviar imported from the Caspian Sea at the beginning of the 20th century.

Caviar roe was originally prepared with a higher salt content to ensure that they lasted and were easier to transport.

Nowadays, this is simply a matter of personal taste and in no way affects the quality of the product.

Enjoy its aromas and texture to the full by serving it neat, on a delicate mother-of-pearl spoon, or on freshly warmed blinis.

- Osciètre Supérieur is a smooth, rounded caviar with a particularly creamy texture and multiple aromatic peaks. It envelops the senses for a great tasting experience.

- Osciètre Héritage: one of the rarest signature caviar, it is generously sized and has an unusually light colour. It represents only 1 to 2% of our annual production.

The origins of Oscietra caviar: the Acipenser Gueldenstaedti species

The Acipenser Gueldenstaedti sturgeon is an imposing fish: it measures around 1.5 metres and weighs between 70 and 115 kilos when fully grown.

This sturgeon has been a protected species in France since 1982, its breeding requires specific expertise, including: a tailored, nutritional diet and careful handling by our fish farmers.

The precious caviar roe can only been harvested once the fish is 12 years old. When it comes to harvesting the roe, using traditional Russian and Iranian craftsmanship, you have to act quickly, it must be done within a few hours of the fish being out of water.
