Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose

Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé are my top picks 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 NV Wilson Creek Almond Anniversary Edition with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

NV Wilson Creek Almond Anniversary Edition

This gold-medal winning champagne is also referred to as the "OH MY GOSH"® champagne. This white sparkling wine is naturally fermented, with just a hint of pure almond added so it's guaranteed to dazzle your guests. A must-have champagne to make any occasion extra special. Great with desserts, cuddling, hot tubs, picnics, fireplaces, brunches, and parties. Very popular at all the weddings here.
