Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti

Baklava 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. You could try Zinfandelic Amador County Old Vine Zinfandel. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 20 dollars per bottle.
