Equipment

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Salad works really well 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. You could try Poppy Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.

Youthful notes of lemon and honeysuckle are layered over ripe melon, nutmeg, and clove. The perception of sweetness is derived from fruit ripeness, aging on regularly stirred yeast lees in the presence of aged French Oak.
