Cabernet Sauvignon is a red wine. Sauvignon Blanc is white.
Sauvignon blanc is a variety of grape which produces the crisp and refreshing white wine of the same name. The grape originates from the Bordeaux region of France although it is now grown worldwide.
White - chardonnay, viognier, sauvignon blanc Red - cabernet sauvignon, pinot noir, merlot
A crisp white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or vinho verde.
A sauvignon blanc should be served first, because it is not as sweet as a viognier. The etiquette for serving is to go from dry to sweet and from white to red, except for champagne. Both of these wines are dry! But Sauvignon Blanc should be served first as it lighter than viognier.
A good choice would be a dry white wine such as vino verde or Sauvignon Blanc.
- for the "blanc sec" : sémillon 58%, sauvignon 21%, muscadelle 10%, ugni blanc 9%. - for the "blanc doux" (sweety wine, for desserts or foie gras) : sémillon 73%, sauvignon 21%, muscadelle 6%. Each winegrower has to "assemble" the juices of the different grapes he grows, to get the result he wants. In other regions, it is forbidden to use more than one variety of grape to make the wine (i.e. Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé, which use only Sauvignon in their white wines)
You might try a white wine with crisp acidity, such as vino verde or Sauvignon Blanc.

Fettucini with a white sauce pairs well with Fume/Sauvignon Blanc or Merlot. Fettucini with a red sauce pairs well with Syrah/Shiraz.
This will really depend on what is in the salad. Typically Sauvignon Blanc is recommended for pairing with salads or you could try a nice fruity white such as a Chardonnay.
