Apples, pears, raisins—fruit goes so well with roast pork, which acts as a moist, tasty canvas upon which deliciously sweet fruit can really shine.

The complex mixture of tartness and sweetness from the Finger Lakes red wine in the cherries mixes so well with tangy mustard and earthy sage in this recipe—it tastes so good, we could eat this sauce all by itself!
