dry white wine 118milliliters

homemade or low-salt canned chicken or fish stock 1Tb

chopped fresh tarragon 1clove

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 1large

shallot, finely chopped

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Cod can be paired 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. The Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 26 dollars per bottle.
