Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Gruener Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc

Chardonnay, Gruener Veltliner, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices 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. The Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Chardonnay Wine with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.
