Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti

Macaroons works really well with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is Blue Fish Sweet Riesling. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
