Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner

Fish can be paired with Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, and Gruener Veltliner. 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. You could try Tobacco Road Pinot Noir, Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 30 dollars per bottle.

Tobacco Road Pinot Noir, Wine
Aromas of cherry pie, pomegranate, and lychee fruit are followed by vibrant flavors of strawberry jam with hints of whipped cream, clove and cinnamon spice. This is a pretty wine with bright acid and a food-friendly structure.
