Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc are my top picks for Scallops. Chardonnay and chenin blanc are great matches for grilled or seared scallops. If your scallops are being matched with bacon or other cured meats, try a lightly chilled pinot noir. The Williams Selyem Russian River Valley Pinot Noir with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 110 dollars per bottle.

Williams Selyem Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

Red cherry, strawberry confiture, and faded rose petal aromas seem to sing in the top registers in this alluring offering. Hints of beet root, dried herbs and wood spices offer some bass notes to complete this wonderful orchestral suite. With air, the aromas intensify with notes of Morello cherry. The palate is very dense on entry with a strong streak of minerality through to the finish. The tannins are extremely fine grained and reminiscent of Ceylon tea. The 2015 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is a classic, and highlights the elegance and power of a truly great growing region.The Pinot Noir for this blend was sourced primarily from our Drake Estate Vineyard, and the Williams Selyem Estate Vineyard.
