Recommended wine: Vin Santo, Moscato, Ice Wine

Pumpkin Pie works really well with Vin Santo, Moscato, and Ice Wine. Vin santo is typically sweet with notes of baking spices and nuts, so it pairs really well with pumpkin spiced desserts. A good sparkling Moscato would work too, and if you feel like splurging, an ice wine. You could try Mirassou Moscato. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 15 dollars per bottle.

Intense fruit aromas of orange blossoms, peaches, ripe pineapples and citrus overwhelm the nose. Luscious flavors of sweet tropical fruit, mandarin oranges and honey.
