Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Riesling, Muscadet

Chardonnay, Riesling, and Muscadet are great choices for Clams. Buttery chardonnay is great for scallops, shrimp, crab, and lobster, while muscadet is a classic pick for mussels, oysters, and clams. If you've got some spice in your shellfish, a semi-dry riesling can balance out the heat. You could try Skater Girl Limited Edition Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 30 dollars per bottle.

Skater Girl Limited Edition Chardonnay

A light golden hue appears as aromas of Meyer lemon zest,sweet-cream butter, hints of parmesan cheese, golden apple, and yellow flowers meet the taster. A velvety full body with flavors of Bartlett pear and Georgia peach leads to a mouth-watering, lively finish.
