Chardonnay suits simple chops or chops in a butter or cream sauce, dry riesling complements sweet additions like honey mustard or apples, and pinot noir is a safe bet for pork dishes in general. One wine you could try is Hahn Winery Monterey Pinot Noir. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Hahn Winery Monterey Pinot Noir

Hahn Winery 2008 Pinot Noir is vibrant yet elegant with a hue reminiscent of rose petals and a nose of strawberry, spice and floral aromas. Pleasant plum and dark cherry flavors flow across the palate, mingling with touches of black pepper and oak. The ripe fruit is balanced by zesty, cool-climate acidity and smooth, silky tannins.This food-friendly Pinot Noir can be served with a wide range of dishes. Enjoy it with chicken topped with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes, grilled salmon with herbed orzo or a simple mushroom pizza.
