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. You could try NV Paques et Fils. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 36 dollars per bottle.

A very pretty pale pink. Scented with cherries and hydrangea. A spirited rose with tart strawberry on the palate and brisk acidity on the finish, it is refined and sophisticated, but not at all snooty. A perfect brunch wine. Excellent value.
