Instructions
Trim off tail ends of tenderloins to form 2 (8-ounce) pieces, reserving trimmings for another use.
Boil wine, rosemary sprig, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a small heavy saucepan until reduced to about 1/2 cup, 7 to 8 minutes.
Pour through a fine sieve into a measuring cup, then transfer rosemary sprig, garlic, and red pepper flakes to a sealable plastic bag along with 1/4 cup wine marinade and tenderloins. Marinate, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 2 hours or overnight.
Return remaining 1/4cup wine marinade to saucepan and add vinegar, honey, and chopped rosemary, then boil dressing until reduced to about 1/4 cup, 6 to 8 minutes.
Prepare grill for cooking.
When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds), put bell peppers, zucchini, and onion on a lightly oiled grill rack and place over fire. Grill zucchini and onion, turning, until tender, 8 to 10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board. Grill peppers until skins are blackened and flesh begins to soften, about 8 minutes, then transfer to a bowl, cover, and let steam 10 minutes.
While peppers are steaming, pat pork dry and season with salt and pepper. Grill on lightly oiled grill rack over medium-hot fire, turning frequently, until an instant-read thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into meat registers 155°F, about 20 minutes.
Transfer to a cutting board, then tent loosely with foil and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
Peel peppers and cut into 1-inch pieces.
Transfer to a large bowl.
Cut zucchini and onion into 1-inch pieces and add to peppers. Toss vegetables with 2 tablespoons rosemary dressing, 1 teaspoon oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
Toss arugula with remaining teaspoon oil. Mound grilled vegetables on 4 plates and top with sliced pork.
Add any juices from cutting board to remaining 2 tablespoons dressing and drizzle over pork. Top with arugula.
• If your grill rack is widely spaced, you may want to use a grill basket for the vegetables.• Vegetables and pork can be cooked in a lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan (wrap nonmetal handles in foil). Grill vegetables in same manner as above. Grill pork, turning frequently, until well browned, about 10 minutes, then put pan into a preheated 400°F oven and roast to 155°F, about 10 minutes.

Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are great choices 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 Reginato Malbec rosé with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.

Reginato Malbec Rose
Malbec seems an unlikely hero for a sparkling wine grape, but when you want your rosé to show some real color and character, then Malbec's your man. Crisp and dry with lovely strawberry, rhubarb flavors and aromas. Just a hint of tannin structure, floral spice, and an amazing elegant finish rounds out the mouth. It speaks of the rich Malbec grape, but never loses its light, refreshing nature. It will give you a good reason to drink sparkling wine with your main course!
