Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé are great choices 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 Barefoot Bubbly Pink Moscato. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 15 dollars.
