Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti

Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti are great choices for Cake. 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. The Cipriani Prosecco with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.

Cipriani Prosecco

Cipriani Bellini is the world-famous cocktail made with white peach pulp and brut sparkling wine. It was invented in 1948 by Giuseppe Cipriani of Harry's Bar in Venice and is served in every Cipriani location around the world. A great way to start any party or to have with Sunday Brunch! Cipriani Bellini shows elegant, fresh, and fruity aromas with a balanced sweetness and fragrant bubbles. Perfect anytime, great as an aperitif.
