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. One wine you could try is Sur de los Andes Malbec. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 10 dollars.
Sur de los Andes Malbec
Sur de los Andes Malbec
A juicy Malbec with lively acidity backing the raspberry, blackberry and plum notes woven with soft tannins and spice-tinged finish. All the grapes are double sorted upon arrival to the winery. All fermentations take place naturally with native yeasts. Fermentation takes 20 days with 2 days of cold maceration, at temperatures between 24-27 Celsius to achieve the most complexity. The wine then goes through 100% Malolactic Fermentation and is aged in older oak casks.
