Dessert Wines

You need something to serve with that pumpkin pie, right? We love dessert wines at our house and often sip them instead of dessert! But these recommendations are a good match with many of the wide variety of pies and other goodies you're planning to serve on Thanksgiving Day.

2005 Nivole, Moscato D'Asti, Michele Chiarlo (Italy)
Light as air with vibrant peach and honeysuckle flavors and tiny, sparkling bubbles. Great alone or with light fruit desserts. Note that this comes in half bottles at less than $10.



Sandeman Tawny Porto (Portugal)
Intense dried red fruit flavors and subtle sweetness with a touch of tea and a firm backbone of alcohol. Good with most desserts or by itself.



Hartley & Gibson's Cream Sherry (Spain)
Rich taste of caramel apples and toast with nice balance. This could be the perfect pumpkin pie wine -- and it is quite a bargain.



Final Note
If you do the tasting regime our family follows, be sure to have a designated driver who sips lightly. And don't forget to give thanks, certainly for your family and for the great country we are privileged to live in.
