Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Antipasti works really well with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. 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 Raventos i Blanc de la Finca Brut with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 39 dollars per bottle.
Raventos i Blanc de la Finca Brut
De la Finca sparkling wine is made with grapes from Raventos i Blanc's oldest vines, planted using the gobelet system in 1964 in the Vinya dels Fòssils.Situated on the highest terraces of the River Anoia, the Vinya dels Fòssils vineyard has marine soils with a high fossil content. This characterises the structure and the soil composition of this vineyard. The carbonates are the component that provides the main source of typicity to this sparkling wine with a high saline expression. It is a sparkling wine with a unique identity and personality.
