The Best Wines to Pair with Your Favorite Halloween Candy

Halloween isn’t just for kids! This spooky season, give yourself a treat by pairing your favorite Halloween candies with wines that complement their flavors. Whether you're enjoying rich chocolates or fruity gummies, here’s how you can make Halloween a little more adult – but still full of sweet indulgence.

Chocolate Bars & Cabernet Sauvignon

Bold and rich, Cabernet Sauvignon pairs perfectly with the deep flavors of chocolate. The wine’s dark fruit notes enhance the creaminess of the chocolate.

Gummy Bears & Riesling

A fruity, slightly sweet Riesling brings out the bright, chewy sweetness of gummy bears. Its acidity cuts through the candy’s sugary taste for a delightful pairing.

Candy Corn & Chardonnay

The buttery notes of a good Chardonnay balance out the sweetness of candy corn. Its smooth, full-bodied texture makes for a fun pairing with this polarizing treat.

Peanut Butter Cups & Zinfandel

Zinfandel’s jammy, peppery profile works wonders with peanut butter. The sweet and savory combination is a match made in heaven.

This Halloween, skip the trick and treat yourself to these playful pairings that bring out the best in your favorite candies 🎃🍬🍷
