Pinot Grigio Wine
This Country Quiche recipe has the strong flavors that come from the sausage and cheese. I would pair this dish with a Pinot Grigio. The lime and lemon notes of the wine tone it down a bit and compliment the quiche. A Pinot Grigio is also a medium to full-bodied wine, with a rather low acidity and fairly neutral aromas.
