What Wine Goes with Pork
When choosing a wine for pork, most people stick with a red wine although pork is technically a “white” meat. If you are looking for the best wine you can pair with pork, you can’t go wrong with a rich burgundy.
Aside from burgundy, you have many options depending on the type of pork. If you are having roast pork, you should try a Beaujolais. Make sure not to limit yourself to one wine. You can be adventurous and try some white wines with pork roast too. Try a white Semillion or even a Sauvignon Blanc.
If your pork dish is sausage, you should try a Cabernet Sauvingnon.
For ham, you should again try a Beaujolais but don’t be afraid to also try a Vouvray or Riesling.
For pork chops, you should try a Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc and of course you can’t go wrong with a Beaujolais.
Those are the main pork dishes and you should be able to match a tasty wine with each of them. Use your new knowledge to impress your friends and family.
