Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner 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 Georgetown Vineyards American Chardonnay with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.

Georgetown Vineyards American Chardonnay

Our 2014 American Chardonnay was barrel fermented in small French oak barrels, producing a wine with a pleasant finish of green apple and complex minerals.
