Add the wine and cook for 1 minute.
Add 2 quarts of water and bring to a simmer.
Simmer the stock over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, then strain the stock.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish works really well 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 GIFFT by Kathie Lee Gifford Pinot Grigio with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
