Equipment

Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine

Tuna works really well with Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine. Though fish is often paired with white wine, 'meatier' fish like tuna can absolutely go with red wine. A Rosé will also pair nicely, particularly if your tunan is prepared with ingredients better suited to a white wine. One wine you could try is Wild & Wilder The Exhibitionist Merlot. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.

Wild & Wilder The Exhibitionist Merlot
The Exhibitionist is full of rich plum and damson fruit on the nose. Oak used is unobtrusive on the palate which is dominated by rich red berry flavors while also presenting subtle earthy nuances. The wine is elegant and silky with a long finish.
