Wines
For a perfect match with this plate Patrice Martineau and Joseph Sampermans have suggested:
Deutz Blanc of Blancs Brut 1998, Pouilly Fumé or light red e.g. a light South African pinotage.
1. Deutz Maison Lafite Champagne.
Aromas: grapefruit; flowers; white peaches, and toasted.
2.
Loire Pouilly Fumé.
Poilly Fumé has an unusual flavor for a dry white wine: a strong flavor of musk and smoked..
3. Light African Pinotage.
Light red.
