Tasting notes: Fish tacos are a summer staple for us and the bright spices and citrus paired with Riesling is beautiful!

Serena's tips: If you don't want to use the chipotle pepper, you can substitute dried, ground chipotle pepper instead. Add 1 - 2 tablespoons of lime juice to step 1.  You can also saute or bake the fish instead of frying it.
