Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place fillets skin-side down, cut a slit 3/4 of the way edge to edge and top to bottom to make pocket. Fill with the pesto. Place salmon fillets in a shallow oven proof pan without touching each other. Pour wine around the fillets and bake for 10 min. Remove from oven, let rest for 5 min. Set oven to broil and put salmon back in for 3 min.
