Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine

Sparkling Wine are my top picks for Baked Egg. Even if you aren't making mimosas, sparkling wine is great with eggs for two reasons. One, if you're eating eggs early in the day, sparkling wine has less alcohol. Secondly, it cleanses the palate, which is important since yolk is known to coat the palate. The Le Grand Courtage rosé Brut Bedazzled Bottle with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 40 dollars per bottle.
