Recommended wine: Merlot, Malbec, Zinfandel
Merlot, Malbec, and Zinfandel are great choices for Burger. Merlot will be perfectly adequate for a classic burger with standard toppings. Bolder toppings call for bolder wines, such as a malbec or peppery zinfandel. The Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Forty Licks Merlot Wine with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Forty Licks Merlot Wine
The 2012 Merlot captures the attitude of Mendocino County's style. Aromas of black cherry, leather, and tobacco are followed by rich flavors of cinnamon over vanilla. This dry red wine is a fine match for herb-roasted chicken, grilled beef or smoky chili.
