Recommended wine: Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Grigio

Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio 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 Michel Redde Sancerre Les Tuilieres. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 30 dollars per bottle.

A very approachable, classic Sancerre: zesty with a hint of grass as well as white fruit on the nose. Crisp on the palate, withpronounced but well-balanced acidity.Pair with fish and white meat dishes.Blend: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
