Recommended wine: Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, Sauternes

Cheesecake on the menu? Try pairing with Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce, and Sauternes. White dessert wines are a safe pick for cheesecake (without chocolate), but a sweet lambrusco will be so good with classic strawberry cheesecake. One wine you could try is McFadden Late Harvest Riesling. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

McFadden Late Harvest Riesling

Late Harvest and Botrytis-blessed, like Château d'Yquem, this is a sublime experience. Honeyed apricot meets baked apple pie in a glass. Quite simply, this is the best dessert wine you will taste, even at double the price, in your lifetime.
