Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé are great choices for Antipasti. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Laurent-Perrier La Cuvee Brut (3 Liter Bottle - Jeroboam) with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 400 dollars per bottle.
