* Recipe: Strawberry Tart
April 2001: 119
Pairing wines with desserts can be tricky, but there's a general rule to remember that will make the decision much easier: The wine should be sweeter than the dessert. By following this guideline, you'll be able to enjoy the flavors of both the wine and the dessert; otherwise, if the wine is not sweet enough, it will be overshadowed by the sweetness of the dessert. For this recipe, sweet wines made with the Muscat grape are in order. Try Bonny Doon, Vin de Glacière, Muscat, California or Domaine du Durban, Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, France.
