Recommended wine: Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce

Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, and Lambrusco Dolce are my top picks for Pie. These wines are all sweet, which is important since wine should usually be sweeter than the food you're pairing with it. The McFadden Late Harvest Riesling with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.

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.
