Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Pork Tenderloin on the menu? Try pairing 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 Finca La Malena Malbec with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.
Finca La Malena Malbec
Finca La Malena Malbec
100% Malbec from eastern Mendoza. Limestone and clay soils, cool winters and warm summers provide great fruit concentration, and smooth tannins. Dark ruby in color reflecting light in an array of orange/purple hues. Pleasant nose filled with hints of red forest fruits and herbs. Young round tannins give it a silky sensuous texture that leads to a rich mouthfeel. Mouthwatering layers of red berries, plum, vanilla and spice open as it warms up, delivering a rich varietal character. A delicate finish that bridges the gap between drinks and lingers well after the last sip.
