Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc

Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices for Shrimp. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. The Anne Amie Pinot Gris with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Anne Amie Pinot Gris

Aromas of Bartlett pear, gardenia, white peach, white tea, jasmine, graham cracker, and straw. Flavors of Asian pear, white fig, white peach, white strawberry, and fennel flowers. The finish is dry, long and acid driven.Pairs well with roast chicken, Caesar salad, mussels, quince glazed pork chop, grilled squash, pan seared trout, and bibimbap.
