What wine should I serve at a dinner party with salmon?

When it comes to serving wine with salmon, you want to focus on light to medium-bodied wines that won't overpower the rich, oily nature of the fish. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are classic choices that complement salmon beautifully. From the selection provided, two excellent choices stand out: the **De Saint-Gall 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs Half Bottle** and the **De Saint-Gall Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru**.

The **De Saint-Gall 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs Half Bottle** is a delicate Champagne known for its white flower aromas and lovely minerality, making it perfect as an aperitif or with dishes like Salmon tartare. This choice is ideal for bringing a touch of elegance and freshness to the table, highlighting the flavours of the salmon without overshadowing them. Similarly, the **De Saint-Gall Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru** offers a similarly refined experience with its pure elegance, making it another standout option for your dinner party.

For a more budget-friendly option, you might consider the **Billecart-Salmon Brut Sous Bois**. Although priced higher, its complex flavours, including notes of milk rolls and gentle spices, make it an intriguing match for salmon dishes. Its ageing in oak and unique composition of grapes also provide an additional layer of depth and richness that pairs excellently with salmon's fatty texture.
