Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Cod on the menu? Try pairing 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 Menage a Trois Limelight Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 11 dollars per bottle.

Menage a Trois Limelight Pinot Grigio
Ménage à Trois Limelight shines a spotlight on refreshing citrus flavors in the most dazzling way. Limelight is a new star with sexy orange blossom aromas that lead to zesty key lime and mouthwatering Granny Smith apple flavors that make you pucker up. A touch of honeysuckle sweetness and minerality balance the pronounced citrus notes before the curtains drop with a refreshingly crisp finish.
