Pão de queijo—warm, chewy, and cheesy—is one of Brazil's simplest and most universal pleasures. Its soft texture and milky flavor call for fine, light bubbles.
OUR RECOMMENDATION
Champagne Brut Grand Cru — Georges VESSELLE. The fine effervescence, fresh acidity, and minerality of the Chardonnay Grand Cru pair perfectly with melted cheese and the soft crumb. A Franco-Brazilian aperitif of great elegance. Alternative: Crémant de Bourgogne Chauvet Frères.
