Recommended wine: Vin Santo, Moscato, Ice Wine
Pumpkin Pie on the menu? Try pairing 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. The La Morandina Moscato d'Asti with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
