Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Fish. 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 Loveblock Pinot Gris with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 24 dollars per bottle.
Loveblock Pinot Gris
Loveblock Pinot Gris
Loveblock Pinot Gris is a pale golden with hints of green. The 2013 vintage is a dry style with floral aromas and a hint of ripe pineapple. The palate reveals poached pear and blood orange, and finishes with a touch of citrus, good texture and rich mouth feel.
