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. The Rutini Trumpeter Malbec with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Bright violet red, seductive fruity plum aromas and spice profile (cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper). is red wine has great body and its lively structure accentuates intense tannins with a velvety aftertaste.Ideal pairings include barbecue meats, lamb dishes, empanadas, or freshwater fish.
