White Wine for Scallops and Such

Any white in this blog would be delicious with scallops, but the Feudi di San Gregorio Falanghina Sannio, Italia might be an absolutely perfect match with the above recipe. Brilliantly clean and fresh aromas and flavors of subtle spring flowers, hints of tropical fruit, zingy twists of citrus peel, lemons, and faint herbs abound in this crisp libation. We can’t seem to get enough of wines like this! Certain to tickle one’s taste buds, a cool glass of Falanghina really cannot be beat when paired with lighter fare such as scallops. One of the great things about many Italian whites is that they can hold their own with challenging pairings like vinaigrettes, asparagus, artichokes, and bitter greens.
