Equipment

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 Scarpetta Pinot Grigio with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Scarpetta Pinot Grigio
Light straw color with just a hint of salmon. Aromas of both stone fruits and melon. Showing Pinot Grigio's ability to be light on its feet but complex. Melon and stone fruits with minerals and medium body. Pinot Grigio has such a great range. Wonderful on its own as an aperitivo, with light grilled fish like sashimi, pesce crudo or ceviche.
