Deviled Eggs, also known as stuffed eggs, are a classic appetizer that features hard-boiled eggs filled with a creamy mixture of egg yolk, mayonnaise, and mustard, often garnished with paprika. The dish is rich and creamy, with a slight tanginess from the mustard and a hint of spice from the paprika. The richness of the egg yolk and mayonnaise, the acidity of the mustard, and the spice of the paprika all need to be considered when pairing this dish with wine. A dry German Riesling would be a delightful pairing with Deviled Eggs. Riesling is a white grape variety which originated in the Rhine region of Germany. Dry Rieslings are known for their high acidity and bright, crisp flavors of green apple, lime, and mineral, which can cut through the richness of the eggs and mayonnaise, while complementing the tanginess of the mustard. Sancerre, a French wine made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes in the Loire Valley, is another excellent choice. Sancerre is known for its high acidity and flavors of green apple, gooseberry, and flint, which can balance the creaminess of the dish and highlight the tangy mustard. Lastly, Prosecco, a sparkling wine from Italy, would also pair well with Deviled Eggs. Prosecco is made from Glera grapes and is known for its light body, high acidity, and flavors of green apple, honeydew, and cream. The bubbles and acidity in Prosecco can cleanse the palate between bites, while the fruity and creamy flavors can complement the flavors in the dish.
