Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Pork Tenderloin on the menu? Try pairing with Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. You could try Bodega Norton Malbec Reserva. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 20 dollars per bottle.
