it is my husband's 70th birthday and we are having 14 friends over to celebrate. i was also set to make the scott wooley choclate cake and we were going to serve it with a moet & chandon brut imperial rosé champagne. but just the other minute i received from some relatives two junior's cheesecakes-one plain and the other chocolate mousse. so i won't be making the chocolate cake ...

but i do need advice what champagne to serve with these cheesecake gifts. i hope to get a quick answer as the party is tomorrow and i want to go out late this afternoon to buiy my champagne.

thanks for the help

well, we couldn't figure out the wine with the cheesecake thing. so we froze both cheesecakes and i went ahead and baked the yoummiest choclolate cake with a chocolate ganache coverring. served it with the rosé champagne and it was a great hit. alll the champagne was finished but we still have a 1/4 of cake left. mmmm, i'll cut it into serving pieces and then freeze them. i can see us going into the freezer and eating the frozen pieces :smile:

btw, i called france and spoke to my daughter in law and she, too, couldn't figure out what wine with the cheesecake, looks like we'll just have to eat it with coffee or tea and that won't make us suffertoo much.
