Red Wine. Red wine like Pinot Noir, Merlot or Zinfandel call for fish like salmon or tuna. The fruitiness and fresh taste of the wine is a great complement and tones down the "fishiness" of salmon and tuna getting too carried away. They also play well with the aromas and texture of the fish..

It is not uncommon to pair a white wine with the seafood to start, then progress to a bolder red when you make your way to the steak. We recommend a full-bodied wine to start, such as a California Chardonnay, followed by a red rich in structure, such as a Bordeaux.

Because salmon is a meaty fish if you grill or char it you can pair it with a red. Pinot Noir is my favourite match but a Gamay would rub along happily too. If you prefer a white try a dry Pinot Gris. A fruity Pinot Noir is also a good wine match with Japanese style dishes such as salmon teriyaki or yakitori..
