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. One wine you could try is Laurent-Perrier Brut rosé. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 50 dollars.

Laurent-Perrier Brut Rose

Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes from a total of ten 100% rated villages, this champagne gets its glorious pink color and rounded red fruit flavors from a process known as 'saignée', in which the skins of the grapes are left in contact with the juice for three days. Laurent-Perrier's Cuvee Rosé not only makes a delicious aperitif, but is also a good match for a variety of different dishes, particularly puddings.Alcohol: 12% by volume
