America's Best Pies

Best Pie to Try: Blackberry Cabernet Pie.

When baker Lindsay Doolittle and her husband launched this doughy enterprise in March 2010, their focus was on “transforming pie from an American classic to an imaginative designer dessert.” Their blackberry Cabernet pie does just that. Like most perfect experiences, this one doesn’t last forever. Just four months, in fact, when the namesake berries are fresh. This boozy baked good benefits from hints of blackberries in the Cabernet, but in Doolittle’s words, the fresh fruit and the crème “take it over the top.”
