Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc

Salmon on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The Wild Horse Unbridled Pinot Noir with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 24 dollars per bottle.

Wild Horse Unbridled Pinot Noir
This Unbridled Pinot Noir has generous cherry, blackberry and vanilla aromas withsubtle savory notes. It's full-bodied with ripe fruit flavors and supple tannins, making ita good match for wine-braised beef short ribs, grilled Portobello mushrooms, or roastpork loin with a raspberry balsamic glaze. It is delicious now, and should mature nicelyover the next five years.
