Blanc de blancs champagnes naturally fit with seafood platters or oysters. Some recommend lobster for pairing vintage blanc de blancs, and while that would work here, I’d suggest saving that pairing for when you want to impress or when you need a balm for the week. Fresh, soft cheeses (try this with cheese from Champagne like Langres, Vignotte, or Chaource-it’s stunning), lemon chicken, fried foods in general, creamy pasta or risotto, sushi, or anything that leans toward salty, briny flavors will be *chef’s kiss* perfect. We’re sharing two recipes today, the first featuring Rotisserie chicken as the main ingredient and the second, Lobster Risotto, to highlight that you can have a delicious, decadent pairing without too much time or trouble.
