Pork Loin Tonnato

A classic Northern Italian dish, this Pork Loin Tonnato comes together in about an hour and is a delicious dinner to enjoy any night of the week.

Pair it with our 2020 Musqué Chardonnay for a vibrant, palate-pleasing indulgence. With the Musqué’s aging in both concrete and oak, it nicely complements the tangy and slight brininess of the sauce while still offering a tad of richness to pair with the pork. Our La Pristina Chardonnay is also an excellent match for this dish if you’re looking for a wine with a rounder mouthfeel.
