Iberico Ham Wrapped Pork Tenderloin

What makes this dish special is wrapping it in Iberico ham and searing it, taking this dish up a notch. We like to serve with turnips, brussels and beets, but feel free to serve with anything you wish. The sauce we pair is savory, sweet with a touch of acidity to brighten it up and cut through the pork; these flavors also meld and blend well with the SAVANT. Prepare this dish for a special occasion or for New Year's Eve.
