A crisp white wine is required to cut through the oiliness of fried fish.
Furthermore the fish itself is likely to have a delicate flavor so avoid oaked wines and those made from
powerfully flavoured grape varieties.
Mixed Fried Seafood is often served with lemon, garlic sauce, anchovy dipping or local delicacies: find a wine to contrast or match those flavors. In doubt? Go for bubbles!
Franciacorta matches the fish iodine, Falanghina is citrusy and acidic, Vermentino adds minerality and sapidity.
Avoid: Tannic reds will taste sour next to anything bright and acidic.
