Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir 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 Mark West Pinot Grigio. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
