Finding the right wine pairing for a meal can be difficult, hence the existence of sommeliers. We sought guidance from one on the best wine-and-shellfish pair.

The article from Yahoo Lifestyle discusses the best wine pairings for shellfish, emphasizing that the choice depends on the type of shellfish and the preparation method. For delicate shellfish like oysters, a crisp and dry white wine such as Chablis or Muscadet is recommended due to their high acidity and mineral notes that complement the briny flavors. For richer shellfish dishes like lobster or shrimp in creamy sauces, a fuller-bodied white like Chardonnay or even a light red like Pinot Noir can be suitable. The article also suggests considering sparkling wines like Champagne for their versatility with various shellfish preparations, enhancing the dining experience with their effervescence and acidity.
