You know those perfect coastal summer evenings? The ones where the pace is unrushed, the wine is flowing, and the possibility of an after-dinner beach stroll is always in the cards? We want every night to feel that way, which is why we teamed up with SEAGLASS Wine Company on a guide to elevating summer’s best seafood dishes with refreshingly delicious wines from California’s Central Coast. Whether delicate raw fish or heartier grilled seafood is on the menu, we have a wine that will let it shine — and inspire a toast to the coast.

A Seacuterie Board and Fresh Oysters

the wine

SEAGLASS Pinot Grigio

Freshly-shucked oysters and a seacuterie board piled with tinned treats (think razor clams, spiced sardines, and salmon filets packed in herby olive oil) are guaranteed showstoppers, whether you’re putting together an elegant solo meal or entertaining guests al fresco. A clean, aromatic Pinot Grigio complements the briny-sweet oysters and cuts the meatiness of the tinned fish — framing the flavors of your seafood spread in the best way possible. SEAGLASS’s Pinot Grigio boasts aromas of lemongrass, grapefruit, and honeysuckle leading to flavors of pear, apple, and tangerine, topped off with bracing acidity, a touch of minerality and a tart finish. Not to mention, like all SEAGLASS wines, it’s 100% Certified Sustainable.

Ceviche and Grilled Shrimp

the wine

SEAGLASS Sauvignon Blanc

There’s nothing like sharing plates of fresh seafood at sunset — especially if the wine is as lively as the company. Ceviche and grilled shrimp are summertime classics, and both are brought to their full flavor potential when paired with SEAGLASS Sauvignon Blanc. The citrus notes help bring out the sweetness in these delicate dishes, while the clean, crisp palate of gooseberry, tangerine, and a touch of minerality add depth and complexity to the seafood’s bright flavors.

Pasta With Shrimp and Mussels

the wine

SEAGLASS Pinot Noir

Is there a meal that says cozy, coastal night in quite like a bowl of fresh, herb-studded pasta heaped with shrimp and mussels? It’s the perfect dish for an intimate dinner — a meal to linger over until every bit of seafood has been shelled and the last drop of sauce has been soaked up by crusty bread. SEAGLASS Pinot Noir is an excellent choice to stand up to this heartier fare, with its elegant, light-bodied style, notes of red cherry and strawberry, and vibrant acidity.
