WHICH WINE WITH YOUR BURGER?
From chili cheeseburgers to Hawaiian-style pineapple-topped burgers, Americans can't get enough of this classic sandwich.

And, whether you're into bold flavors or basic toppings nothing tops off a burger better than a simple
glass of wine. See below for specific pairings.

BURGER TOPPINGS:Pickled relish and yellow mustard WINE SUGGESTIONS:White Zinfandel offers a soft and fruity balance to these piquant flavors.
BURGER TOPPINGS:Lettuce, tomato, raw red onion, ketchup and mayonnaise WINE SUGGESTIONS:An Australian Shiraz or a Syrah from California can stand up to these varied flavors.
BURGER TOPPINGS:Chili Cheese Burger WINE SUGGESTIONS:The All-American Zinfandel has spiciness to match the chili.
