Served as appetizers or delicious snacks, these savory cakes are rich in nutrients. Perfect for a brunch, they are ideal with a mix of salads or crudités and a good glass of wine.

Tűzkő Sauvignon Blanc 2021 by Tűzkő winery is our match. Suggested because: “The sip is particularly fresh, the typical scents of the grape are highlighted. The drink is pleasant, clean, with a good persistence and an aftertaste reminiscent of a slightly macerated fruit”. For the full review click here.
