Catch The Right Wine to Dish With Your Fish.
Which wine pairs best with which fish? The answer is as varied with the different shades of summer.
Sure, as a rule, white wines do pair stunningly with most fish. However, other wines pair better with different fish recipes.
Here are a few quick tips to pick just the right wines for your fish dishes:
The featured Lemon Salmon with Garlic Rice recipe is the perfect match for a light-bodied white wine, like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.
Oysters and our fun and bubbly Ménage à Trois Prosecco are an amazing pairing/combo.
Lobsters, scallops, mussels and clams, pair enticingly with our Ménage à Trois white wines.
When serving lobster as the main course, or in a salad, we recommend Sauvignon Blanc, or Chardonnay.
For seafood pastas and risottos, even the ones with fresh tomato-based pasta sauces, Ménage à Trois Pinot Grigio offers the right light-bodied pairing.
If you decide to go French and prepare the Classic Nicoise Salad, Ménage à Trois Rosé Wine is a superb match.
Dish your fish with this summer-easy recipe, and pair with Ménage à Trois Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.
