Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Champagne, Bordeaux, White Burgundy

Sparkling Wine, Champagne, and Bordeaux are my top picks for Quiche. 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 Dom Perignon (torn capsule) with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 329 dollars per bottle.

Dom Perignon (torn capsule)

Golden color with an amazing glint of green. The nose is complex and elegant. Initial toasty flavor, like toasted hazelnuts – then a suggestion of brioche and honey. On the palate, the attack is extraordinary, clean, one could even say well structured. Compact and solid on the palate. Fatty character and acidity seem perfectly balanced. Long finish, retaining freshness and even a subtle firmness, redolent of dried fruit. Brilliance, purity. Pedigree and distinction. A sense of elegance and balance predominate.
