Which wine with snapper? Okay, let's see, maybe I could offer some suggestions here... I think the best way to determine the right wine with your snapper would depend on how the fish will be cooked, along with its natural flavor and texture. Try to complement or contrast the flavor and texture of the fish with your wine... I have to ask, will you have a sauce with your snapper? What seasonings will the snapper have when being prepared by your chef? And so on...
Pair delicately flavored fish in subtle, mild sauces with lighter, more delicate wines. Very few young red wines fall under this category, so a white muscadet from France or melon from Oregon would nicely fit the bill...
Or, you might consider a higher-acid wine such as a red Anjou or white Burgundy from France, or a riesling from south Australia, which is really better with a fattier, richer fish such as a hearty, oily piece of salmon...
But, if your snapper is grilled, then you might try a full-flavored, smoky Viognier from France or a heavily oaked, premium Napa chardonnay which would be ideal for any grilled snapper...
I hope this was helpful... now, on to the markets? Do you have any downside targets? TIA
