Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc

Scallops can be paired with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc. 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 Brooks Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 25 dollars per bottle.

A beautiful perfumed nose of rich cherry jam, Thanksgiving cranberries with grated orange peel, morel mushrooms and black truffle. A wonderful high note of black tea, leather and potpourri. The wine is so luscious in the mouth, coating the palate with rich, dark cherry, warm raspberry, red currant and black plum. There is a wonderful earthiness of portabella mushrooms on the grill, roasted vegetables, bacon fat and smoked meats. This Pinotfinishes with ripe fruit, earth and complexity and a hint of tomato leaf and earthiness. Just delicious!
