Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner

Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, and Gruener Veltliner are my top picks for Catfish. 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 Calista Coast Range Pinot Noir. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 25 dollars per bottle.

Calista Coast Range Pinot Noir

The 2012 Calista Coast Range Pinot Noir is deep ruby red in color with aromatics of dried cherries, rose petal, violet and roasted coffee bean. Rhubarb, cherry and notes of cranberry flow through the palate to a balanced and lengthy finish of mixed dark fruit and black tea.
