Need to pair an appetizer with Marsanne... any ideas? Preferably something that could be purchased or easily assembled.

Jim, Hi...

If a young Marsanne, whether a Croze-Hermitage from the Rhone or an Australian, go for shrimp with a mayonnaise enriched cocktail sauce or deep-ried calamari rings with aioli or rouille for dipping. If a mature Marsanne based wine, already turned somewhat heavier and deeper, think perhaps of balls of blue cheese coated with breadcrumbs and deep fried.
