Food and Wine Pairing: Croziflette and White Wine

Traditionally, croziflette is paired with a fresh and lively white wine. Savoy wines, such as a Roussette de Savoie or a Chignin-Bergeron, are obvious choices for a regional pairing. Their acidity and freshness perfectly balance the richness of Reblochon cheese and bacon. The floral and mineral notes of these white wines bring a lovely lightness to the dish. Wines from the Rhône Valley, such as a Crozes-Hermitage Blanc made from Marsanne grapes, also offer a great alternative with their roundness. With aromas of white-fleshed fruits and moderate acidity, these wines elegantly complement croziflette.

Which Red Wine to Pair with Croziflette?

Although white wines are often preferred, it is entirely possible to serve a red wine with croziflette. In this case, opt for a light red with low tannins. Savoy wines, especially those made from Mondeuse grapes, bring a touch of spice and red fruit that pairs well with the cured meats and crozets. You can also turn to a red wine from the Loire Valley, such as a Gamay or Pinot Noir. These fruity and light wines, with soft tannins, add freshness and balance to this hearty dish.
