WINE AND YULE LOG PAIRING<\/span><\/h2>\n

To accompany a Yule log, the ideal choice is a subtly sweet wine, so as not to end the meal rolling around like a log... If it's a classic buttercream, almost any wine will do. But if the log is fruity, a Muscat or Beaumes-de-Venise will be just the thing to make sure you don't run out of juice. And for those who want to finish on a fizzy note, opt for a champagne with character, just to pop the cork... without making the log explode! ???<\/p>\n
