What white wine will go best with my special anniversary salmon dish?

I'm making a balsamic glazed salmon for my one year anniversary. The recipes calls for a bit of honey, dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, oregano, and garlic to glaze the salmon with.


Both my husband and I are not big fans of the taste of alcohol, in fact, a cabernet sauvignon was a little too strong for us, so we'd prefer something with a light alcoholic taste. Does anyone have any recommendations for a light white wine to go with this special meal?|||Try a Moscato D'Asti... it's a bit sweet and bubbly like Asti Spumante, the sweet champagne made in Italy with moscato bianco grapes. It should compliment the hint of honey in the glaze, and will certainly add to the festive occasion! A good bottle should run you about $10 at BJs Wholesale Club. Not sure basic retail prices, as I only buy at discount stores. Happy Anniversary and Bon Appetit! ;-)|||with fish you need to go really light...a pinot grigio (Ecco Domani) or Barefoot (Pinot Grigio)





Reds aren't so compatible with fish...the are heavy...if you do try a Savignon Blanc.|||Pretty much any Pinot Grigio will go with your salmon but if your looking for something a little sweeter try Demi Sec... Nothing red should go with fish its too robust... think of it like this dark meat dark wine chicken and fish go white.. Good luck that sounds delicious I'm jealous :)|||Salmon is heavier and fleshier than most fish, for that reason it can pair well with a wine that is a bit more substantial. A chardonnay will be perfect with salmon, or a red such as a pinot noir, which is on the "light" side of most red wines.





A heavy red wine would probably kill it, particularly since you and your husband do not care for them. One thing to keep in mind is that your personal preference is the most important thing in food and wine pairing.
