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 Marques de Caceres Cava with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Marques de Caceres Cava

Pale straw color revived by fine bubbles. Bouquet of citrus fruits with notes of brioche. Charming and round in the mouth with a refreshing, balanced structure. Lively finish that highlights its fine bubbles.A refreshing aperitif, this Cava marries well with fish and seafood, pasta, rice, spicy dishes, Asian cuisine, and all types of desserts.
