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. One wine you could try is Stoltz Organic Pinot Noir. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 26 dollars.

Stoltz Organic Pinot Noir

This Pinot shows well with its deep rich color and floral aroma for an organic Columbia Gorge Pinot noir. Everything is in order for this wine to either welcome years of aging or be drunk on the spot.
