Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Madeira, Prosecco

Cream Sherry, Madeira, and Prosecco are great choices for Cookies. Sweet bubbly Prosecco doesn't overwhelm simple sugar or shortbread cookies, a sweet cream sherry complements spiced cookies, and madeira's nutty notes match cookies with nuts perfectly. The Wagner Vineyards Riesling Ice with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 31 dollars per bottle.

Wagner Vineyards Riesling Ice

Gently pressing frozen grapes extracts only the juice while leaving water behind in the form of ice. The result is this luxurious, full-bodied dessert wine. Aromatic and zesty, each sip exploded with vibrant fruitiness & leaves behind a lively, lingering finish.
