Halibut A La Barigoule
Halibut A mixture of garlic, wine, halibut, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so tasty. To use up the dry white wine you could follow this main course with the White Wine Frozen Yogurt as a dessert. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 45 minutes.
Instructions
Add carrots, thyme, salt, and pepper to pan; cook until just tender, about 9 minutes. Raise heat to high; slowly add wine and 3/4 cup water; stir to scrape up remaining brown bits, and cook until boiling. Reduce heat to medium; add halibut, and cover. Cook until fish is opaque and cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Halibut. 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 Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

An intense golden color with hints of ocher, the wine has a nose of ripe fruit, quince. In the mouth the attack is both supple and full, with notes of honey and spices. The final perfectly balances sugar and acidity.Pair this wine alongside pan-fried foie gras, grilled or roasted white meats (pork, veal), rabbit, poultry in cream sauce, smoked fish, mushroom dishes such as risotto.
