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 Byron Nielson Vineyard Chardonnay. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 36 dollars.
Byron Nielson Vineyard Chardonnay
Byron Nielson Vineyard Chardonnay
Byron 1998 Chardonnay Nielson Vineyard expresses the profound natural quality of the old vines of this historic vineyard. Bright aromas of golden delicious apple, pear and honey are accented by hints of spice and hazelnut. The flavor profile features concentrated ripe fruit, spice and floral touches with an attractive mineral component that weaves through the background. The wine is supple and silky on the mid-palate, but finishes with a characteristic kiss of natural acidity, assuring longevity and graceful development.Alcohol: 14.2% by volume
