Combine clam juice mixture, clam-tomato juice cocktail, potatoes, bell peppers, scallions and black pepper in large saucepan; heat to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are just tender.
Stir in the undrained tomatoes and the chopped clams and heat through.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Muscadet, Riesling
Clams works really well with Chardonnay, Muscadet, and Riesling. 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 Hanna Chardonnay with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.
