Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc

Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Shrimp. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. You could try Esperto Pinot Grigio. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 10 dollars per bottle.

Brilliant straw color with reflections of gold. Crisp and clean with delicate nose of orange flower and wild rose with apricot, white peach and orange peel. Crisp, dry and well structured with golden apple and citrus.Wonderfully versatile. Excellent as an apertif and the perfect complement to light appetizers, salads, grilled chicken and fresh seafood. Enjoy well chilled.
