Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling

Pork Chops on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling. 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 Baron Philippe de Rothschild Escudo Rojo Pinot Noir Reserva with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Pale cherry red with a ruby tint. The nose is very complex and fresh with intense, forward fruit on cherry and raspberry mingles with gentle toasted almond notes. The wine has a very good attack, elegant and succulent tannins. Fruit flavors on the mid-palate, especially cherry, while the elegant finish combines the fullness of fresh fruit with the refinement of the Casablanca terroir.Pairs well with goat cheese, sole in lemon butter, or carpaccio of scallops.
