Vignoles: Spicy shrimp's perfect match

The spicy, savory chile-garlic shrimp I made for this episode was paired with a fruity, fresh Vignoles from Stonehaus Farms.

Vignoles (pronounced veen-yole) is a French-American hybrid that produces wines that have range from dry, to sweet, to late harvest dessert wines. Vignoles grapes are hardy enough to handle Missouri winters, and are one of the earlier ripening grape varietals in the state. Vignoles' crowd-pleasing capabilities and array of wine styles make it an incredibly popular choice among the wine-buying public.
