Recommended wine: Champagne, Tawny Port, Sauternes

Creme Brulee works really well with Champagne, Tawny Port, and Sauternes. Sauternes, Tawny Port, and champagne all complement a creamy creme brulee. The Cipriani Prosecco with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
