Wine with maple-rum glazed salmon

I should've said "I have decided." The dinner is happening on Friday.

Thanks for all your suggestions. It wasn't at all clear, but I did decide to serve the salad separately.

I've lurked on Chow for a while and finally decided to sign up.

My first question is what wine would work best with the following menu (I'm an absolute novice at wine pairings).

Maple-rum glazed salmon (the sauce is maple syrup, rum, & dijon mustard)
Roasted asparagus (with a little parmesan and lemon)
Twice-baked potatoes.
Romaine salad with pears, blue cheese, and walnuts

I was sort of thinking a Zinfandel or Riesling, but the rum really throws me a curve.
