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. The Jimmy John's Vin De Sandwich Pinot Noir with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.
