Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Muscadet, Riesling

Chardonnay, Muscadet, and Riesling are my top picks for Shellfish. 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. One wine you could try is 7Cellars Elway's Reserve Chardonnay. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 28 dollars.

The 2018 Elway’s Reserve Carneros Chardonnay is well-balanced, exhibiting crisp tropical fruit, apple and pear flavors with light floral elements. Hints of vanilla complement a smooth, lingering oak finish.Pair this crisp wine with light fare such as sliced fruit & cheeses, lemon pasta salad, roasted chicken with herbs, or vanilla pudding.
