Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Chianti, Verdicchio, Gruener Veltliner, Trebbiano

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Chianti are my top picks for Caprese Salad. 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. One wine you could try is NV Ruinart , Wine. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 89 dollars.
