Recommended wine: Port

Port are great choices for Tart. 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.

St. Barthelemy Cellars Zinfandel Port

A deep ruby red color that sparkles in the glass describes this Zinfandel port. The aromas are a complex mixture of licorice, blackberry, and a whisper of vanilla. The rich jammy taste has hints of licorice, herbs, spice and currants with a lingering finish of almond and anise. Some recommended food pairings are crab cakes, Gorgonzola cheese, Chèvre, figs and chocolate, or a good cigar.
