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. The St. Michael-Eppan Anger Pinot Grigio with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 23 dollars per bottle.
