Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Salad can be paired with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner. 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 Arboleda Chardonnay. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

Arboleda Chardonnay

Arboleda Chardonnay is bright and beautiful light yellow in color and very perfumed on the nose, with an exuberant side showing pronounced notes of tropical fruits such as papayas, pineapple, and a light touch of melon, along with a more complex and subtle side that developed in the barrel and recalling hazelnut, almonds, and a touch of toast. The palate is creamy and long with a delicious acidity that lends freshness and tension. This is a complex wine brimming with youthfulness and good structure leading to a long finish, all of which promise excellent longevity in the bottle.
