What to Drink With Turbot With Truffle?
For a perfect gastronomic pairing combining finesse and refinement, a Vintage Champagne will be the ideal match for our turbot with truffle recipe. To enhance this dish, the Champagne must have a good aromatic amplitude so as not to overwhelm the dish, but on the contrary to enhance it.
The association of Champagne with the very fine and delicate flesh of the turbot will reveal the elegance of the flavours of its melting flesh without dominating it.
To respond to the aromatic power of the truffle, we naturally turn to an exceptional Champagne that will awaken the truffle's singularity. The wine chosen must support and transcend the aromas of the truffle without erasing it. This cuvée will also go wonderfully well with the foamy butter which will bring out all its unctuousness.
A beautiful and exceptional gastronomic balance that will surprise your taste buds. The match is guaranteed!
