What would you pair with shrimp, feta, and dill orzo? Open for red or white. | ||

Had similar dish (ours didn't have dill) last night that paired nicely with Bethel Heights Pinot Blanc.This message has been edited.

Sauvignon Blanc. Or my go-to when nothing seems quite right. Champagne! PH | |||

PH is rarely wrong, and he is not wrong here. | |||

Guy recommended a Sauvignon Blanc. It was quite refreshing. Certainly will be delving into some more whites in the next few months. | |||

Now I'm wondering what food might pair well with Viognier? edit: amazing what a little search will do http://forums.winespectator.co...=472100305#472100305 | |||

If you dont have any Champers, definatly a Sauv. Blanc. Sancerre specifically.

Hey, PH. Good to be back. | |||

Sauvignon Blanc would be my first choice with shrimp you will love the flavors it pulls from almost any sea food. Very good with mussels and scalopes too. Wino #1 http://winowinemaking.com | |||

Echo the SB recs and particularly the Sancerre. Would also try a Vinho Verde or lighter Gruner Veltliner. | |||

PH had a great suggestion, but a nice Condrieu might do the trick as well. Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. | |||

If you feel like splurging on a fabulous Condrieu, look for Rene Rostaing's 2009 La Bonnette, the best Condrieu I've ever tasted. Just one more sip. | |||

Thanks for the suggestion Board-O, I'll try to search some out. Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. | |||

Rene told me only 20 cases were being imported into the US. I should have asked him if I could buy some, but it didn't seem right to me to do it. Just one more sip. | |||
