Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Malbec, Sangiovese

Pork Tenderloin can be paired with Pinot Noir, Malbec, 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 SeaGlass rosé of Pinot Noir with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.

A beautiful reflection of Monterey County’s pristine coastal terroir, the Rosé opens with fragrant wild strawberries and dried rose petals on the nose. Flavors of juicy cherry andripe raspberry are balanced by refreshing acidity and a crisp, clean finish. This vibrant wine is a diverse menu partner, pairing exceptionally well with prosciutto and melon or crab cakes with spicy aioli.
