Dessert Wines

Dessert wines are sweet wines typically served at the end of a meal. Despite the name, they are often best appreciated alone, or with fruit, bakery sweets or even chocolate.

There is no simple definition of a dessert wine. In the UK, a dessert wine is considered to be any sweet wine drunk with a meal, as opposed to the white fortified wines (fino and amontillado sherry) drunk before the meal, and the red fortified wines (port and madeira) drunk after it.
