New Year's Eve menu: Champagne also goes well with strong food
Even though champagne is not regularly served on most people, many citizens want to treat themselves to a bottle on certain occasions. On New Year's Eve, a good drop off is good enough to say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new one. Full-bodied champagne varieties also go well with strong dishes.
Champagne on New Year's Eve
On New Year's Eve many German citizens get a good bottle of champagne on the table. Although most of the exclusive sparkling wine is drunk at parties or perhaps oysters and other seafood, at the turn of the year more substantial dishes are served. However, this is obviously not a problem: as the news agency dpa reports, it says in the magazine "Food & Drinks", (issue 12/2015) that champagne also fits to hefty food such as red meat.

Full-bodied varieties fit well-strong food
Even champagne, which has a yellow to golden color, is often made from red grapes. Although you do not necessarily see this, because he had only very short contact with the dark shells, but taste it makes itself felt. According to the report, the more basic red wine grapes are used, the more full-bodied the champagne tastes, and the better it goes with hearty and strong food. By the way, you should not store sparkling wine and champagne for too long. Experts from TÜV SÜD have recently pointed this out. By long storage, carbon dioxide disappears and the taste is less. (Ad)
