Equipment

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling

Pork Chops can be paired 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. One wine you could try is Frank Family Vineyards Lewis Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 62 dollars.
