Tiramisu
Tiramisu stacks sweet mascarpone, bitter coffee and dusted cocoa, so the wine has to be at least as sweet as the pudding and carry its own coffee or cocoa depth to meet the bitterness. A sweet, concentrated or fortified wine is the answer. Avoid dry wines, which taste harsh against the sugar and cocoa.
