Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti

Coconut Cupcake can be paired with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. 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 Turley Judge Bell Vineyard Zinfandel with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 75 dollars per bottle.
