Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Salmon. 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. You could try Laguna Winery Russian River Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 29 dollars per bottle.

Laguna Winery Russian River Chardonnay
Laguna Chardonnay offers elegant hints of refreshing apple, peach and ripe orange. Expressive layers of caramel and price complement subtle toasted oak notes. Full bodied with hints of cream, this wine has a soft, lingering finish.Laguna is dedicated to producing world-class Chardonnay from the prestigious Russian River Valley. In the heart of this region lies the inspiration for our wine: Laguna Vineyard. This land saw its first wine grapes planted as far back as the 1800s and has been home to world-class Chardonnay for more than four decades. In the Russian River Valley, a long growing season and cool coastal breezes result in a delicate balance between crisp acidity and ripe fruit flavors.
