Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 2 (9 by 5-inch) loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray and dust lightly with flour.
In a large mixing bowl combine all of cake ingredients.
Mix on medium speed until well incorporated, about 3 minutes.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown, about 40 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then remove them from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack over a sheet pan.
Put the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl and slowly beat in the sparkling wine until consistency is thick but pourable.
Pour the glaze over top of the cakes and allow it to drip down the sides.
Let sit for 5 minutes to set before slicing and serving.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port
Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port are great choices for Pound Cake. 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. You could try NV Solera Cream Sherry. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.

NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
