Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Merlot, Rose Wine

Pinot Noir, Merlot, and rosé Wine are great choices for Tuna. 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. The Marimar Estate Don Miguel Vineyard Cristina Pinot Noir with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 48 dollars per bottle.

This is a wine for aging, yet lovely to drink right now. The complex nose displays aromas of blackberries, plum preserves and sandalwood. The palate, broad and seamless, shows perfect balance between the attractive fruit and the elegant oak. The lively acidity carries the wine to the end and ensures the long aging potential of this magnificent wine.
