Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in red bell pepper and carrot, cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, cook and stir until softened, about 2 minutes.
Pour wine into the pot, simmer until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Stir in diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring sauce to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until flavors combine, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in lentils, paprika, basil, oregano, dried herbs, and nutmeg, cook until lentils are heated through, about 5 minutes.
