Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Chenin Blanc

Spiral Ham works really well with Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Chenin Blanc. Riesling and chenin blanc have a touch of sweetness that complements ham's sweet and salty flavors. If you prefer red, a light red like pinot noir will do. One wine you could try is NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.

Very aromatic with notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and a touch of oak followed by sweet raisins and a touch of yeast. Clean lasting finish. Good now but will reward those allow it to age"". A favorite pre-prandial beverage. Consider it with nuts before dinner as an aperitif, or after dinner with dessert, especially chocolates and fruit-based desserts. Also wonderful on cold afternoons, served with biscotti to dip in ""Italian-style"". "
