Pinot Gregio, not sure if I spelled it correctly. You can drink the rest of it. It is a perfect cooking wine.What kind of dry white wine is best for a creamy pasta sauce recipe?
Don't use chardonnay unless you want an overwhelming butter and oak taste. I've been using pinot grigio, sometimes chenin blanc. As a little tip, unless you want to drink wine with dinner, get one of those little 4 packs of mini bottles. Less waste that way, and one mini-bottle is usually enough, and then you always have some in the fridge for something else, like risotto.
Pinot Grigio will add an acidity to your creamy garlic sauce that should enhance the complexity of the flavors. Use the same bottle to serve with dinner to complement the flavors. One thing, wine doesn't react well with high heat, so go slow. Bon apetit.
