When people talk about wine pairing, it is typically in the context of cheese. This infographic, however, explains which wines go best with a different kind of food -- [Halloween candy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotel-chocolat-halloween-collection). From Vivino, 'The Candy and Wine Match Maker' is a "Halloween survival guide for grown-ups."

The seasonal guide covers every type of vino from dry whites to bold reds and everything in between. It also includes popular candy bars and other candies often found in a [trick-or-treating bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsters-approved-candies). This includes Wonka Nerds, Maynard Sour Patch Kids and Hershey milk chocolate.

The wine pairing chart will come in handy whether you are sneaking some of your kid's candy or looking for a beverage to go with your own treats.
