Were they matched together? That would be....different. Isn't Coquilles St Jacques scallops redundant?
I've never heard of coquilles St Jacques meaning anything but "scallops," not any specific dish. FWIW, I think its just sloppy writing.

Where else could a Pomerol wine come from?
Mike, Only a very, very few Americans would know that Pomerol was part of Bordeaux. Most wouldn't have clue as to what Bordeaux actually is to be frank.
Bordeaux, it's a wine isn't it? :-)
Nah, that's Bardolino. Bordeaux was my favorite candy in the See's chocolate sampler ;-)

Of the multiple redundencies? Of the pretensious writing?
Neither.

Type "coquille st jacques" into Google - even the French version, and what comprises most of your hits. It's the aforementioned dish.
Same goes for an image search.
I've been served this dish a few times while staying with friends in France, and have since learned how to make it. It's really good. And that really is what it's called, with nothing in the name to distinguish it from the main ingredient.

It is not a dish, it is the french name for scallop. Same in italian, "capesante", means holy shells, as in holy Saint James.
We don't speak Google in France :-)
