Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish 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. One wine you could try is Scarpetta Pinot Grigio. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.

Scarpetta Pinot Grigio
Light straw color with just a hint of salmon. Aromas of both stone fruits and melon. Showing Pinot Grigio's ability to be light on its feet but complex. Melon and stone fruits with minerals and medium body. Pinot Grigio has such a great range. Wonderful on its own as an aperitivo, with light grilled fish like sashimi, pesce crudo or ceviche.
