Choosing wine with salmon

Poached, roasted or served with sauce?

Poached salmon with lemon gives you a reason to choose a fresh, lighter white. A buttery sauce can suit a fuller Chardonnay. For roasted or grilled salmon with mushrooms, a lighter Pinot Noir is another option.

Can red wine work with salmon?

A lighter red can work. A very tannic wine may overpower the fish, so read the bottle’s body and oak notes. The selection below uses recorded grapes; it is a starting point rather than a precise tasting match.
