Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

Swordfish on the menu? Try pairing 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 Barefoot Cellars Pinot Noir Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.

Barefoot Cellars Pinot Noir Wine

Barefoot Pinot Noir is fruity and elegant with delightful red fruit & lavender aromas that excite before the first sip! Subtle oak notes lift the Bing cherry and raspberry flavors. Enjoy the lingering, silky finish.
