Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are my top picks 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. The Angulo Innocenti Malbec with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.

Angulo Innocenti Malbec
The Angulo Innocenti Malbec shows the beautiful expression of La Consulta cool climate. With a dark, intense purple color, the wine shows the rich, dark fruit flavors and delicate violet notes, very typical of La Consulta terroir, making this area so appreciated for Malbec. This wine also shows freshness, balance and perfect acidity.
