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.
