Coteaux du Layon
Sweet, balanced Layon Chenin elegantly accompanies the creamy texture of flan.
Sauternes
Sauternes (botrytised Sémillon-Sauvignon-Muscadelle on Bordeaux graves) — acacia honey, candied apricot, vanilla and noble rot elevate classic flan pâtissier; vanilla echoing the Bourbon-Madagascar pod split in the infused milk, honey doubling that sometimes added to the caster sugar, candied apricot prolonging the golden crust caramelised at 220°C in finishing.
Moscato d'Asti
Moscato d'Asti (Muscat à Petits Grains from Piedmont, Asti method at 5.5° and 100g/L residual sugar) — peach, sweet orange, rose and light bubbles accompany flan without weighing the dessert; table-grape Muscat echoing Bourbon vanilla, fine bubbles aerating the egg-milk-flour appareil baked in shortbread crust, 5.5° alcohol not competing with the optional Chantilly spoon.
