Recommended wine: Champagne, Bordeaux, White Burgundy

Champagne, Bordeaux, and White Burgundy are my top picks for Souffle. French wine is just as diverse as French food, but you rarely go wrong with champagne. If your meal calls for a white wine, you might also try a white burgundy. For a red, try a red bordeaux blend. You could try Buena Vista La Victoire Brut Champagne. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 50 dollars per bottle.

Buena Vista La Victoire Brut Champagne

The wines bright, sustained golden color is enhanced by an attractive, persistent string of bubbles. The elegant, dense, complex bouquet reveals a wide range of aromas such as lime blossom, hints of toasted bread and honey. The wine's splendid mouthfeel is full and rich but well balanced, leaving delightful freshness on the palate. Blend: 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay
