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. The Three Sticks Durell Vineyard Origin Chardonnay with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 50 dollars per bottle.

Three Sticks Durell Vineyard Origin Chardonnay

White gold in the glass with aromas of lemon blossom and fresh fig, this wine offers a refreshing take on Durell Vineyard. Fermented in concrete eggs, the wine exhibits Durell's signature minerality juxtaposed with a smooth and round mouthfeel. Ageing on the lees in stainless steel barrels develop palate presence, fresh citrus fruit enlivens the wine. Hints of summer peach highlight the long, luscious finish.
