Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Tempranillo

Bean Burger can be paired with Pinot Noir and Tempranillo. Since veggie burgers are usually lean, you'll want low to medium tannin wines. Pinot noir is a great choice. Another option is Spanish tempranillo, which pairs nicely with the earthy flavors you might have from beans, lentils, mushrooms, etc. One wine you could try is Marimar Estate Don Miguel Vineyard Cristina Pinot Noir. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 48 dollars.

This is a wine for aging, yet lovely to drink right now. The complex nose displays aromas of blackberries, plum preserves and sandalwood. The palate, broad and seamless, shows perfect balance between the attractive fruit and the elegant oak. The lively acidity carries the wine to the end and ensures the long aging potential of this magnificent wine.
