Recommended wine: Sparkling Rose, Sparkling Wine

Hummus works really well 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 Santa Margherita Sparkling rosé ( half-bottle) with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Santa Margherita Sparkling Rose ( half-bottle)

Elegant perfumes of strawberries and citrus lead to an attractive palate with mixed berry fruits that linger on the finish. This wine is wonderful on its own, and pairs well with savory appetizers, complex seafood dishes and anything spicy. The elegant mousse will refresh your palate for the next bite and contrasting the bubbles with something soft or creamy can elevate your next meal. Open a bottle along with goat cheese souffle, scallops with roasted garlic and pesto, or a slow-cooked spicy red chicken curry. It also brings a delightful sparkle to a festive brunch or your favorite rich dessert. Blend: 55% Chardonnay, 40% Glera and 5% Malbec
