Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner
Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, and Pinot Grigio are my top picks for Tilapia. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. One wine you could try is Buena Vista Chateau Buena Vista Pinot Noir. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 39 dollars.
Buena Vista Chateau Buena Vista Pinot Noir
This rich Pinot Noir opens with red fruit aromas accented by currants and orange zest. Raspberry and cherry flavors continue through to the palate and are complemented by notes of dark chocolate and blackberry. Showcasing bright acidity and a medium-bodied weight, the finish is long and lingering.
