Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling are my top picks 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. One wine you could try is Parducci Small Lot Chardonnay Wine New Label. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Honoring the rich heritage of the Chardonnay grape, we select individually-vinified small lots of premium varietal Chardonnay grapes to blend a wine of bold, lively character and balanced flavors of crisp apple, pear, and tropical fruits.
