Girl Scout Cookie Pairings
It's a question that comes up often this time of year. What wines and beers should I pair with girl scout cookies?
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette interviewed experts to find the answer. Basically, you want sweet wines and beers, but they offer some more specific recommendations. For instance:
Thin Mints: a sparkling Shiraz, or a hoppy, chocolatey American porter.
Samoas: a fortified wine (such as R.L. Buller Victoria Tokay), or a dry, Irish stout aged in bourbon barrels.

For consumption with desserts and other sweets items I would recommend the Château de Monbazillac. A visit to the Château is also very nice.
