Recommended wine: Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Grigio
Shrimp works really well with Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. The Gajan Alteni di Brassica Sauvignon Blanc with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 150 dollars per bottle.

Golden yellow with an elegant perfume with aromatic notes in harmony with the distinct fruit. Dense structure and balanced body, supported by perfectly integrated acidity.
