Summertime Tastes of the Bay

As we are nearing the summer, we have been rounding up our list of the best seafood recipes and wine that they pair well with! We recommend enjoying these on a shady porch with a summer breeze and a bottle of wine. Here are two of our favorite seafood and wine dinner pairings to try!  If you have a chance to try them out, let us know what you think! 

Broiled Oysters with Celery Cream and Virginia Ham paired with New Kent Winery 2015 Stainless Steel Chardonnay

As a member of the Virginia Oyster Trail, this recipe had us interested immediately! Add in some Virginia ham AND Virginia wine and you have yourself a definite winner.

Maryland Crab Cake Salad, paired with New Kent Winery's Vidal Blanc. 

This refreshing crab cake salad is an interesting twist on preparing crab cakes and with the combination of a glass of chilled Vidal Blanc, will leave you longing for the beach.
