Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner are great choices 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. You could try Alderbrook Winery Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 15 dollars per bottle.

Alderbrook Winery Chardonnay

Aromas of pineapple and mango are accented with vanilla, anise and coconut. The mouth is full with hints of pear and butter, with a long, toasted almond finish. This wine pairs well with Fennel & Lemon Shrimp Salad, Sea Scallops with Mango Salsa, Lobster with roasted Corn Sauce, Chicken w/ Applewood Smoked Bacon & Wild Rice, Pumpkin Risotto with Sage, Salmon w/ Lemon Saffron Sauce.
