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 Tangent Paragon Vineyard Pinot Gris with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.

Framed by a light lemony acidity and vibrant minerality, thispinot gris was made in the traditional dry style of northern Italy.It is surprisingly full-bodied, with concentrated flavors of peach,ginger and tropical fruit, with a hint of a pine-resin character. A great wine on its own, Tangent Pinot Gris pairs well with a widerange of foods including seafood, pasta with light sauces, evengrilled sausages.
