Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose

Antipasti can be paired with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. 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 Papet del Mas Brut. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.

Papet del Mas Brut

Pleasant fruit aromas and a bright, clear color. The taste sensation in the mouth is very pleasant, light and well balanced, fresh and very cheerful feeling, good persistence, with fruit and flower notes. The aftertaste invites you to continue savoring the wine.
