Wine Lover's Dessert Cookbook - Recipes and Pairings for the Perfect Glass of Wine (Paperback)

In the Wine Lover's Dessert Cookbook, you'll find suggestions for such brilliant combinations as Peach Tarte Tatin alongside an intensely flavored ice wine, which brings out the fruit's summery spirit. Or a vintage port to sip while sinking your fork into an amazingly decadent Chocolate Souffle Roulade. Each of these casually elegant recipes, featuring ingredients such as berries, citrus, caramel, nuts, cream, tropical fruits, and, of course, chocolate, have a detailed note - Making the Match - that suggests the best sweet wine to pair it with. Most importantly, it tells you why the match works. Basic guidelines and general rules-of-thumb offer such tips as balancing richer, heavier desserts with a light sparkling Vouvray or choosing a lively wine with citrus notes to serve with a dessert that calls out for a squeeze of lemon. A user-friendly chart cross-references wine types against typical dessert flavors for quick and easy matching advice.
