Wine Advice:
This hearty ground beef and vegetable goulash pairs well with a medium-bodied red wine such as a Merlot or a Cabernet Franc. The earthy and savory flavors of the dish are complemented by the fruity and slightly tannic characteristics of these wines. For a non-alcoholic option, consider serving with a sparkling water infused with a splash of cranberry juice.
