Beerenauslese

Dessert · Medium · Sweet

Germany's noble-rot dessert wine — individually selected overripe berries, often botrytis-affected. Honey, dried apricot, decades of ageability.

Why it works with Almond Cookies

Late Harvest Riesling

Dessert · Medium · Sweet

A style designation rather than a single wine — grapes left to over-ripen for concentrated sugar and intense flavor. Common in Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and many dessert Chardonnays. Always sweet, always memorable.

Why it works with Almond Cookies

Late Harvest Riesling's sweetness echoes the dish's sugar level; check that wine is as sweet or sweeter than Almond Cookies.

Madeira

Classic

Fortified · Full · Sweet
