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 Arcane Cellars Pinot Noir Blanc with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 24 dollars per bottle.

Arcane Cellars Pinot Noir Blanc
Produced from our own estate vines at Wheatland Vineyard, this dry "white" Pinot Noir is produced by pressing off whole cluster Pinot Noir grapes immediately after harvest. The resulting wine has intense floral aromas of honeysuckle, nectarine and gardenia and flavors of honeydew melon, white peaches, and rainier cherry. The wine has a rich, creamy mouthfeel but finishes clean, with notes of wet stone and a crisp flinty minerality.
