Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling

Pork Chops on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling. 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. The Rochioli Estate Chardonnay with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 42 dollars per bottle.
