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

Pie can be paired with Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, and Lambrusco Dolce. These wines are all sweet, which is important since wine should usually be sweeter than the food you're pairing with it. The Moet & Chandon White Star () with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Moet & Chandon White Star ()

White Star is a softer champagne. It is well balanced and harmonious, with subtle aromas of warm toast and gingerbread. The finish is sustained with a hint of honey.
