Recommended wine: Prosecco, Moscato Dasti, Late Harvest Riesling
Apple Pie can be paired with Prosecco, Moscato d'Asti, and Late Harvest Riesling. These dessert wines have the right amount of sweetness and light, fruity flavors that won't overpower apple pie. The Bellafina Prosecco with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 10 dollars per bottle.
