DISCOUNT WINE CELLARS

If you look up wines to pair with pork tenderloin, perhaps have an idea of what style you are looking for: pork tenderloin is versatile. Apples, mangos, lemon, lime, garlic, spice: what's your fancy? Maybe work in reverse: what wine would you like to serve tonight?
For us, the choice of recipe is based on what ingredients we have in the refrigerator. Tonight we are serving Pork Tenderloin marinated in Tikka sauce, lime, soy sauce, then grilled. Tikka includes ginger and garlic flavors which, when combined with the lime and soy sauce, will provide a mildly spicy, aromatic marinade.
For this dish I have located wine pairings for both spicy and lime-marinades as a base from which to decide on tonight's bottle. The resulting wine list draws from diverse ends of the wine cellar. Maybe serve this recipe once to guinea pigs first (ie. family). make sure it is worth the expense of a really good wine. If it is, then don't be afraid to serve a good quality Gewurztraminer or Riesling, which will bring out the lime in your marinade. With the Tikka sauce, however, the choice is difficult. I'm not fond of dry reds, such as the suggested Pinot Noir. I may go out on a limb and try a Red Burgundy which goes well with pork tenderloin in general, though is not specifically paired with this savory dish. Who knows? I might hit on a great combination. Then again, I may make a good guinea pig myself.
