Steps:

• Mix vinegar, sugar, salt, paprika, mustard, and pepper together; marinate pork in the mixture for up to 4 hours.
• Heat a medium saucepan over high heat and add olive oil. Stir in garlic, shallots, carrot, and celery; reduce heat to medium-high and saute until vegetables begin to brown and caramelize, about 5 minutes. Add Chateau Ste. Michelle Cabernet Sauvignon to deglaze the pan, stirring well.

• Heat grill to medium heat. Brush the pork with 2 tablespoons olive oil and place on grill. Cook for about 15 minutes, turning each side 90 degrees to make a crosshatch pattern. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 150 to 155 degrees F.
• Transfer pork to cutting board and let rest 8 to 10 minutes. Slice and serve with blackberry sauce.

Steps:

• In an ovenproof pan, brown tenderloin in butter on all sides (4-5 minutes). Transfer to 450° oven and bake, turning once, until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest part registers 150° (12-15 minutes). Cut to test; meat should no longer be pink in center of thickest part. Transfer meat to a warm platter and keep warm. Add jam and broth to drippings in pan; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring until reduced to about 2/3 cup (about 8 minutes). Slice meat, stirring any juices into sauce. Spoon sauce over meat to serve.

Steps:

• Season the pork tenderloin on all sides with salt, pepper, sage, and rosemary. Place the tenderloin into a slow cooker, and spoon the blackberry jam, 1/4 cup honey, and 2 tablespoons of red wine over the pork. Set the cooker to Low, and cook until very tender, 4 to 5 hours.
• About 15 minutes before serving time, pour 1/2 cup red wine, 2 tablespoons of honey, and the fresh blackberries into a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and some of the berries burst, about 15 minutes.
• To serve, slice the tenderloin and spoon blackberry-wine sauce over slices.
