Recommended wine: Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, Sauternes

Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, and Sauternes are my top picks for Cheesecake. White dessert wines are a safe pick for cheesecake (without chocolate), but a sweet lambrusco will be so good with classic strawberry cheesecake. The Barefoot Cellars Merlot with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Barefoot Cellars Merlot

Delicious aromas and flavors of blueberry jam, currant and plum. Integrated oak lifts the fruit, and complements medium rich tannins and lingering, vanilla oak finish
