Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling are my top picks for Pork Chops. 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. You could try ONEHOPE Pinot Noir Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 20 dollars per bottle.

ONEHOPE Pinot Noir Wine
Rob Mondavi Jr. hand-crafted this Pinot Noir from select vineyards throughout Napa, Sonoma, and the Central Coast. Our California Pinot Noir showcases the delicacy of the grape by allowing an extended ripening period on the vine. This will ensure a mellow approach and an intriguing underlying intensity of strawberry and date flavors. Aged in American Oak rounds out the mouthfeel by introducing tannin structure and a spiced yet lush finish.
