Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling are great choices 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. The Maison L'Envoye Attache Pinot Noir with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

Redolent of boysenberry and mineral on the nose that joins clove, forest floor, cola, subtle black pepper and toasty oak notes on the palate. Welcomed acidity lifts and extends the flavors through a long, silky finish.
