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 Thousand Islands Winery Riesling with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Thousand Islands Winery Riesling

This cool climate, sweet style Riesling displays a fruity aroma with flavors of apricot and peach, followed by a touch of citrus. It has a well balanced mouth feel and sweet finish.
