Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices 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. The Hahn Winery Monterey Pinot Noir with a 4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.

Hahn Winery Monterey Pinot Noir

Hahn Winery 2008 Pinot Noir is vibrant yet elegant with a hue reminiscent of rose petals and a nose of strawberry, spice and floral aromas. Pleasant plum and dark cherry flavors flow across the palate, mingling with touches of black pepper and oak. The ripe fruit is balanced by zesty, cool-climate acidity and smooth, silky tannins.This food-friendly Pinot Noir can be served with a wide range of dishes. Enjoy it with chicken topped with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes, grilled salmon with herbed orzo or a simple mushroom pizza.
