Recommended wine: Muscadet, Riesling, Rose Wine

Mussels works really well with Muscadet, Riesling, and rosé Wine. Muscadet is a classic pairing, but many crisp dry whites will work. If the mussels are cooked with tomatoes, opt for a rosé. If the mussels are on the spicy side, try Riesling. The Marc Bredif Royal Oyster Muscadet Sevre et Maine with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
