Recommended wine: Sparkling Rose, Sparkling Wine

Sparkling rosé and Sparkling Wine are my top picks for Popcorn. 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. You could try Ruffino Sparkling rosé. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.

Ruffino Sparkling Rose

Ruffino Sparkling Rosé is fresh and fragrant with notes of strawberry and slight hints of rose petals. On the palate this wine has elegant bubbles and refreshing acidity, offering alluring flavors of delicate red berries and white fruits that linger through the finish.Ruffino Sparkling Rosé is enjoyable on its own as an aperitif, but also as a food companion, pairing well with a variety of dishes including grilled fish, roasted chicken, and mixed greens salads.
