Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
Mash garlic, ginger, curry powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a paste using mortar and pestle. Rub all over pork.

Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of meat registers 145 to 150°F for juicy meat, 10 to 12 minutes.
Let pork rest, uncovered, on a cutting board while making compote.
Add onion to skillet (handle will be very hot) and sautéover medium-high heat until softened, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add tomatoes and peach and sauté until just softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in thyme and, if desired, sugar.
Slice pork and serve with compote.

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!
