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

Sparkling Wine, Champagne, and Bordeaux are great choices 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 Diebolt-Vallois Blanc de Blancs with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 48 dollars per bottle.
