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 Tudor Wines Tondre Reserve Santa Lucia Highland Pinot Noir with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 75 dollars per bottle.
