Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port, Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port are my top picks for Cobbler. 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 Johnson Estate Cream Sherry. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.
