minutesChef Derick suggests serving this black bean dip with blueberry mole and coriander crema with B Cellars Pinot Noir, especially the Calesa Vineyard or Brown Ranch. The bean dip's earthiness accentuates the wine's earthiness, while the wine's acid helps to cut through the richness. The blueberries in the mole also help to highlight the wine's fruit, making this a perfect pairing all around.
