    I want to not like him @NPHuskerFL but I can't help it, I like him! He cooked this dish for his Mom on Mothers Day and she was on the show. So sweet.

    I think I might have a bottle of wine that would pair nicely with those.

    How do you manage to wrap the scallops without eating all the prosciutto first? Yum!

    I like the guy. He's not pretending to be Jacques pepin. He's just doing his guy fieri schtick and looks like he's having a good time and he's nice to people on his shows. 

    And those look delicious!

    Looks yummy.

    I love bacon and I love seafood. Mix the two and it has to be good.

    How do you find a particular bottle of wine in that thing? Do you have some kind of cataloging system?

    @SaintJohnsEgger I sort them by the ones I will drink on days that end in "Y". 
    I do groupings by varietal and I'm pretty good about remembering what's what...not as good as I use to be, but I manage.

    Based solely on the foils, might I suggest the Tor or the Rombauer?

    I'm partial to Cabs and Zins...love both, but the 2015 Rombauer Zinfandel is a little too sweet for my palate...the 2013 was a nice vintage which is what I have.  The Tor is To Kalon vineyard and is aging nicely...2006 vintage.   I have a nice selection of Wagner's Caymus and 2 bottles left of the 2007 Special Selection that I'll hold on to for a while longer.  In Vino Veritas!

    Impressive wine collection.
    A couple years ago, My Beautiful Wife and I were in Paris, and happened upon another American, as luck would have it, a wine cave architect. She told us of some of the work she had done, and her clientele was impressive.
    Her only recommendation she offered; "Drink the Wine. Do not store it for years to come."
    She then explained how she designed and managed the building of her latest cave, which stored over 6,000 bottles of wine, and had room for another 2000.
    The guy that had it built, tragically, died in an auto accident, and never got to pull the cork from the first bottle of his new cave.
    She, being in the business, had many other similar stories much like this.
    We had driven up from Burgundy for the week, and we were shipping wine home we had selected from the best of the best. After meeting her in Paris, My Beautiful Wife and I started taking her recommendation. Our collection was at one time fairly significant, couple thousand bottles. Now we are down to a few hundred. Our goal is to keep a good selection, 30-45 days worth, which is around 60-70 bottles. Big change, but also makes great sense as well. 
    I will also tell everyone the same thing "Drink the Wine"  but I also add "My favorite wine is the wine I share with friends."
    I do have an appreciation for your collection, well done.

    @yukonron   I agree that wine is much better when shared with friends and try to as often as possible.  I've been in the process of downsizing my collection as well and would like to reduce it to less than 100 bottles this year.  Thank you for your compliments and PM me if you're ever in my neighborhood since over a bottle of wine many a friend is found.

    I have a good friend in Canada who'd recently retired from a fascinating aerospace/power distribution career, and he's come to the same conclusion.  He and his wife are whittling down his lifetime collection, still buying cases when he comes across a great value, but enjoying what he has.
    Most wines nowadays, especially those formulated for the US market, aren't expected to be aged more than 10 years or so anymore, anyway.

    Nice looking collection. I have a fridge half that size. I am also in SoCal. Where are you located? Mine is double stacked on each shelf so may hold around the same amount of bottles. I am also in the process of pairing down the collection.

    Thanks for that story @YukonRon. Great advice and I just read it to my husband and he agrees!!! Like saving the good China for company...life is too short. Break some dishes.

    Thanks @SSQUAL612! I don't remember what white that was I was drinking while cooking but I know with the meal we did a Mathis rosè and it was awesome. One of my favorite wines from a sweet winery. https://www.mathiswine.com/collections/types?q=rose

    You are very welcome. I noticed you enjoy Rosé. Grenache is a very nice grape for that wine, excellent choice. We have it with BBQ in the summer, frequently. We also do Beaujolais as well, during the hot months.
    In the late afternoons in Paris, the folks grab either of the two wines, (both are extremely popular there) and head to the banks of the Seine with a baguette, and cheese. They hang out, watch the sun set, and watch the river traffic wind it's way through.
    Not a bad way to end the day. We joined them a few days.
    We found it impressive, their table wines, served at most dining establishments, were equal to,  or better, than much of the domestic wines we typically pay $40.00 or more/bottle here in the States. Great wine is relatively inexpensive there, offering great deals.

    Yum. I'll be making those for dinner on Saturday. They'll be the surf component of surf and turf. Maybe a couple huge prawns or small lobster tails too. It's a special occasion.

    I'm going to have to try the scallops and I've been wanting to make the Green Lightning Shrimp.   I have some Sparkling Rose and depending on spices for the scallops a lighter bodied Pinot Noir or Sauvignon Blanc might pair well. Looks like I have some experimenting to do...still working on a wine that goes with Captain Crunch.
