Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are great choices for Pork Tenderloin. 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. One wine you could try is Finca La Malena Malbec. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 14 dollars.
