Surprise your guests with this sweet and savory recipe from chef Matthieu Frinault. The runny texture of thesoft-boiled egg marries perfectly with the creamy sweet potato, enhanced by the freshness of the feta and the roasted notes of the hazelnuts .

The surprising food and wine pairing: Sylvaner Exception!

We recommend Sylvaner Exception with this dish. Its aromas of white fruit and flowers give it freshness, while its hybrid ageing in wood and concrete ovoid tanks gives it structure and woody notes.

Enjoy!
