Onion tart with bacon & Federweißer

Onion tart with bacon and sour cream filling - the classic autumn dish of the Moselle region, which is inextricably linked to Federweißer wine during the harvest season. A dark, hearty yeast dough cake with caramelized onions, smoked bacon and sour cream filling that combines wine and food in the simplest and most harmonious way: with a semi-dry Mosel Riesling QbA, which carries the same season in the glass as the cake on the plate. Autumn in its most beautiful form.
