Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Riesling, Muscadet

Shellfish works really well with Chardonnay, Riesling, and Muscadet. 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. The Meadowcroft Los Carneros Chardonnay with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 29 dollars per bottle.

Meadowcroft Los Carneros Chardonnay

Aromas of Anjou pear, Fuji apple, and notes of lemon verbenaspring from the glass. Complex notes of vanilla and bakingspices are complemented by subtle toasty oak. This wine hasbeautiful balance and a lingering finish. The 2017 Los Carneros Chardonnay will pair gracefully withany cheese and charcuterie board. This wine would alsocomplement entrees such as Roasted Halibut with Lemon,Olives, and Rosemary; Buttermilk-Brined Roasted Chicken;or Pasta Carbonara.
