Recommended wine: Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, Sauternes

Cheesecake can be paired with Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, and Sauternes. White dessert wines are a safe pick for cheesecake (without chocolate), but a sweet lambrusco will be so good with classic strawberry cheesecake. You could try Snake River Late Harvest Riesling. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.
