Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti

Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti are my top picks for Scone. 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. One wine you could try is Raventos i Blanc de la Finca Brut. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 39 dollars.

Raventos i Blanc de la Finca Brut

De la Finca sparkling wine is made with grapes from Raventos i Blanc's oldest vines, planted using the gobelet system in 1964 in the Vinya dels Fòssils.Situated on the highest terraces of the River Anoia, the Vinya dels Fòssils vineyard has marine soils with a high fossil content. This characterises the structure and the soil composition of this vineyard. The carbonates are the component that provides the main source of typicity to this sparkling wine with a high saline expression. It is a sparkling wine with a unique identity and personality.
