Wine and baklava pairings

Baklava can be combined with a sweet wine, which is as sweet or slightly sweeter than the baklava itself. That is a fairly sweet, full-bodied wine.

A sweet Muscat wine can be a wonderful combination, provided it is quite sweet. And of course the noble sweet wines from Austria (Neusiedlersee), France (for example Sauternes) or Hungary (Tokaj) are a wonderful combination. Make sure the wine is sweet enough, if it is not, it will come across as too light and too sour with the baklava.
