Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Salmon Chowder. Chowder can benefit from a crisp white to cut through the rich, creamy broth - or you can go big or go home with a rich, buttery chardonnay. The Kumeu River Village Chardonnay with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

This wine was fermented 25% in old French oak barriques, and 75% in stainless steel tanks, so there is very little oak influence on either nose or palate. This has allowed the vibrant fruit to show through beautifully with lively lime and lemon aromas and a flinty, mineral edginess with hints of fig and white peach.The weighty mid-palate also shows peachy ripeness along with crisp acid minerality that gives the wine a refreshing cleansing quality. This wine is delightful as an aperitif, and even better to drink with fish and shellfish.
