Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose

Candied Pecans works really well 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. The Graham Beck Bliss Nectar with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 21 dollars per bottle.
