Looking for Suggested Wine Pairing(s) for two dishes: Quorn Pizza || Bean Mushroom Zoodles

For an upcoming weekend menu, I'm looking to pair some nice wines for two different meals picked by my companion.

I'm aware we cook relatively non-standard but I'm trying to gain experience and see how wine can fit food. The meals are not necessarily eaten across the evenings in the order listed. Also my companion often makes changes to the recipes, e.g., we might not use an ingredient but we will use the title components.

The first is a Quorn Pizza. Recipe: https://neilshealthymeals.com/quorn-pizza/

The second is Bean Mushroom Zoodles. Recipe: https://www.easycheesyvegetarian.com/creamy-courgetti-white-bean-sauce/ We will likely omit the tomato here though.

What would you recommend or which advice can you give for good pairings? What tastes to focus on, where to look for inspiration. Many and varied suggestions are welcome!

The following of my wines should be drunk sooner than later, according to online found Drink-by-Dates, so prefer one of those. I do have a large collection beyond those so feel free to propose any!

2008 Società Agricola Nativ Taurasi (Aglianico)

2011 Bodegas Hispano-Suizas Pinot Noir Bassus (might be nice with the mushrooms/beans zoodles?)

2011 Aquinas Cabernet Sauvignon

2012 Rebel Wine Cabernet Sauvignon The Show

2014 Weingut Setzer Golden Grüner Veltliner

2010 Terra d'Oro Winery Zinfandel
