Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Catfish on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. 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. You could try Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.
