Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese

Pork Tenderloin works really well with Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese. 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 Belasco de Baquedano Swinto Old Vine Malbec with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 39 dollars per bottle.

Belasco de Baquedano Swinto Old Vine Malbec
A brilliant deep garnet color. Complex, darkly fruity and earthy on the nose, with a luscious palate of ripe red stone fruits and jams accented with spicy, toasty notes. Generously flavorful, dense and unfiltered, SWINTO achieves an outstanding balance of Malbec’s signature robust character and silky elegance. This wine is made from 114 year old Malbec vines.
