Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Merlot, Rose Wine
Tuna works really well with Pinot Noir, Merlot, 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. The Bollinger Brut Special Cuvee with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 60 dollars per bottle.
