Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner are my top picks for 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. The Cakebread Reserve Chardonnay with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 65 dollars per bottle.

Cakebread Reserve Chardonnay

The 2014 Chardonnay Reserve offers seductively fresh, creamy aromas of golden apple and Asian pear fruit nicely complemented by notes of creme brulee, vanilla and mineral. Rich and full on the palate, the wine reveals a core of deeply concentrated spiced apple, melon and citrus flavors that maintain their intensity throughout a long, mineral-tinged finish. Boasting deep reserves of fruit coupled with exemplary balance, the Chardonnay Reserve is delicious now, but will age beautifully in bottle for another 5-7 years.Pair this wine with sweet potato soup with chestnuts and brandy.
