  In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, butter, sugar, ginger, lemon and wine. Pour over the salmon to coat. Place filet in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. The butter will harden. Occasionally, spoon the mixture on top of the salmon again, rubbing the butter into the meat.

  When ready, grill in the foil over medium heat for about 20 minutes. You can use a fork to test the flakiness of the fish. You want it to still be very moist, so be careful not to overcook it. Remove from heat and let stand for a few minutes.
