Albarino

Classic

White · Light · Dry

Galicia's gift to summer — citrus, peach, salt air, and acid like a knife. Made for shellfish, paella, and any dish that involves the sea.

Why it works with Salmon Fish Tacos

Spanish coastal white with the salt and citrus that ceviche, shrimp tacos call for.

Cava

Classic

Sparkling · Light · Dry

Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.

Why it works with Salmon Fish Tacos

Bubbles cool the heat and refresh the palate between bites.

Pinot Noir

Classic

Red · Light · Dry

Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.

Why it works with Salmon Fish Tacos

Pinot Noir is the rare red that works with salmon — silky tannin meets the fish's natural fat.

Rosé

Classic

Rosé · Light · Dry

Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.

Why it works with Salmon Fish Tacos

Dry rosé bridges Mexican heat and lime acidity with refreshment to spare.

White · Light · Dry

Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.

Why it works with Salmon Fish Tacos

Crisp citrus white mirrors lime, cilantro, and tomatillo — the salsa verde register.
