White Wine, Alcoholic Drink, and Ingredient are my top picks for Tuna Steak. 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 Olivier Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 54 dollars per bottle.

Olivier Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet

It is a glorious wine of very distinct aromas: almond paste, ferns, exotic fruit, white flowers with discreet acidity on the palate and a smooth, impressively long finish. The wine is vinified according to the "cuvée ronde" principle, meaning the blending of wines from different and complementary lots. In recent vintages, 12 different parcels in the appellation of Puligny-Montrachet comprise the blend.
