Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling are my top picks for Pork Chops. 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 Hay Shed Hill Pitchfork Chardonnay with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.

Hay Shed Hill Pitchfork Chardonnay

Brilliant appearance, pale straw with green hues. Fermentation in stainless steel tank allows the full expression of Chardonnay fruit aroma without the influence of oak or lees resulting in a bright, clean tropical fruit bouquet. The palate is rich with tropical fruits, clean zippy acidity balances the sweet fruit character resulting in a bright fresh flavorsome palate. When good quality Chardonnay is used unwooded Chardonnay takes on a whole new level of depth and intensity.
