Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner are my top picks for Salad. Sauvignon Blanc and Gruner Veltliner both have herby notes that complement salads with enough acid to match tart vinaigrettes, while a Chardonnay can be a good pick for creamy salad dressings. One wine you could try is Maison de la Villette Chardonnay. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 14 dollars.

Maison de la Villette Chardonnay

Lovely golden color with a subtle nose of white flowers and citrus. A refreshing and complex white wine with lemon pie, fresh banana and pear scents followed by roasted hints of praline, vanilla and candied chestnuts. Perfect served on its own as an aperitif or with seafood, grilled fishes and salads.10 to 12 day fermentation with both French and American oak is followed by a soft 6 month maturation on the wine’s natural lies. About half of the final blend completes malolactic fermentation, which allows to keep some natural acidity. An early bottling allows to capture freshness and primary flavors.
