Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir

Scallops works really well with Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Pinot Noir. 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. You could try Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Chardonnay Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 18 dollars per bottle.
