Seafood Linguine

[Jule]

Getting ready to serve a simple seafood linguine with lots of shrimp and scallops plus lemon, lemon zest, garlic, tomato sauce & parsley. What would be a nice refreshing wine to go along with it. I'm also doing a green salad, garlic bread and some kind of vegetable.

Dessert is TBD.

Hi Jule, and welcome to the Wineboard. If you want a red (because of the tomato) go with a light Pinot Noir. Otherwise a full bodied Chardonnay or Riesling would work.

By refreshing, I'm also reading into it "chilled". If so, one more option (beyond the recommendations by IK which I like) could be a nice rose. The pasta is going to be hot and might even have a little bit of heat to it. The rose will be refreshing, light and definitely not overpower the dish.

At first, with all that lemon in it, I thought of Vermentino; then, I came to the tomato sauce (lemon and tomato sauce; lots of acidity).

After thinking about it more, I come down on a light red (or Rose) too, but I'd go with a northern Italian Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero from Trentino) or some other red from that region, or from Germany. In other words, a cool climate, lighter red that is fruity as well.
