Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Pork Tenderloin works really well 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. The Bodega Norton Malbec Reserva with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.
