Domaine Dupont Calvados Pays d'Auge Vieille Réserve
Apples - The first thing that came to my mind was Calvados !
I was lucky enough to have a bottle of Domaine Dupont Calvados Pays d'Auge Vieille Réserve in my drinks cabinet and I must say it paired beautifully.

2018 Wild Duck Creek Cornella Shiraz
You can not have one definitive wine to pair with all different pizza toppings, so here is a quick guide:
Hawaiian - Riesling
Magherita - Pinot Gris
Vegetarian such as Bianca - Chardonnay
Chicken - Pinot Noir
Pepperoni - Sangiovese
Meat Lovers - Shiraz
This beautiful Shiraz had aromas of tobacco, plums and blackberries with a wonderful balance of fruit on the palate. I know that a Pinot Noir or Sangiovese would have been a better match with the pulled pork but barbecuing in the snow for 9 hours I just needed a big, bold and heavy Shiraz. Definitely would recommend decanting for 3 hours beforehand.
