Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Alcoholic Drink, Ingredient, Food Product Category, Wine, Red Wine, Sherry, Port, Dessert Wine, Drink, Moscato, Menu Item Type, Moscato Dasti

Cream Sherry, Alcoholic Drink, and Ingredient are my top picks for Marble Cake. 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. One wine you could try is NV Solera Cream Sherry. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

NV Solera Cream Sherry

The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
