Tomato Pesto Cod

This fish dish was easy, delicious, and breathtaking on any plate.  Serve with a Rosso piceno. The wine’s dark red character cuts the richness of the pesto sauce, while harmonizing with the tomatoes. This wine from the Le Marche region of Italy also goes especially well with fish and shellfish.
