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. You could try Schmitt Sohne Riesling Spatlese. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 11 dollars per bottle.

Schmitt Sohne Riesling Spatlese

This fully ripened Riesling has highly extracted fruit flavours of apricots and peaches coupled with enough acidity to give it a firm and juicy mouth feel. Excellent by itself or to complement soft or blue vein cheeses, richer style food with sauces and asian dishes.Alcohol: 7.5-8.5% by volume
