Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Madeira, Prosecco

Cream Sherry, Madeira, and Prosecco are great choices for Shortbread Cookies. Sweet bubbly Prosecco doesn't overwhelm simple sugar or shortbread cookies, a sweet cream sherry complements spiced cookies, and madeira's nutty notes match cookies with nuts perfectly. The Villa Jolanda Moscato and Peach with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Villa Jolanda Moscato And Peach

Brilliant, straw-yellow color, quite intense and aromatic. A delicious peach-flavored sparkling that is delicate and sweet. Perfect with dessert and especially with pastries
