Recommended wine: Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce

Pie on the menu? Try pairing with Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, and Lambrusco Dolce. These wines are all sweet, which is important since wine should usually be sweeter than the food you're pairing with it. The Taittinger Brut La Francaise with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 45 dollars per bottle.
