Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc

Scallops works really well 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. The Bench Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Bench Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Lean, vibrant and delightful. Sourced primarily from Sangiacomo Amaral Ranch Vineyard in the Sonoma Coast AVA. This is a wine with a lean, elegant structure and vibrant acidity, reminiscent of Burgundy.It complements rich sauces, roasted meats, and loves to be paired with poultry.
