Hummus on the menu? Try pairing with Sparkling rosé and Sparkling Wine. 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 Ca' Furlan Cuvee Mariana Sparkling rosé with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
