Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc

Salmon can be paired with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc. 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 Villa Jolanda Moscato and Peach with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Brilliant, straw-yellow color, quite intense and aromatic. A delicious peach-flavored sparkling that is delicate and sweet. Perfect with dessert and especially with pastries
