Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner

Tilapia works really well with Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, and Pinot Grigio. 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 Viva Diva Moscato Colada with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 11 dollars per bottle.

Viva Diva Moscato Colada

Sweet Moscato wine infused with natural coconut & pineapple flavor. Light orange in color. Fruity, typical of coconut & pineapple with light hints of Moscato. Excellent as an aperitif or mixing with cocktails.
