Lamb burgers wine pairing

Lamb burgers are best paired with a rich red wine with high tannins and good acidity. Lamb burgers are often seasoned with rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. These flavours are best combined with a wine with savoury aromas.

Best pairing: Tempranillo

Tempranillo is also called Tinto Fino, Ull de Llebre, Cencibel, and Tinta del País in Spain, and Tinta Roriz and Aragonez in Portugal. This is a fruity and herbaceous red grape variety mostly grown in Spain and Portugal. It is the main grape of red Rioja wine.
