Rioja/Riesling/Rose appetizer pairings

[wondersofwine]

Additional suggestions
1. Spanish tapas like mushrooms sauteed in sherry or marsala, or beef kabobs. Here is a link for a mushroom recipe. http://www.spain-recipes.com/bread-mushrooms-allioli.html
2. Dry Riesling (Kabinett) of sweet (Spatlese)? Perhaps camembert angemacht with pretzels (a traditional Bavarian appetizer--I will try to locate a recipe on the Internet and provide a link later today.)
3. Agree with the salmon--also good with ham (little ham biscuit sandwiches perhaps)
