Data-driven wine advice from SommelierX
Wine with roasted vegetables: let the flavour guide you, not the colour. The presence of paprika and courgette makes this dish outspoken, and a wine has to answer that statement. That is why we first translate roasted vegetables into a Wine DNA profile and match it against our entire wine database. The result below is a focused selection where you can see exactly why each wine fits. Plus a handful of tips to serve the combination perfectly at home.
The Wine DNA of roasted vegetables shows a clear profile: Sweetness and acidity are the strongest flavour axes. Our algorithm translates this flavour balance into wines whose own DNA axes — acidity, tannin, body, fruit and spice — complement the dish rather than overpower it. The higher an axis below, the more that taste defines the dish and the more precisely the wine selection responds to it.

What ties this selection together: the sweetness of roasted vegetables leads, and every recommended wine answers that flavour axis in its own way — one with structure, another with fruit or freshness. So you do not get a single "correct" bottle, but a range that all start from the same flavour principle. Choose by colour, price or occasion; the match with the dish is reasoned in every case.
