What to say?

I'm not trying to weasel out of answering, but your question is on the order of "What red do you like with meat?" I mean, there's pheasant, and venison, and wild boar, and all sorts of different types of game. (Well, maybe I am weaseling out a little, since I still have trouble remembering different wines -- maybe I test too much?;) )

Thanks Suzanne

You know I could get more specific, But i want to leave this open.

Let me ask you If you prepared a squab with a squab stock, reduced with black currents, rosemary, shallots and sweet vermouth.simply roasted the bird ETC. I would serve this with a Pinot Noir, Not a white. The Cherry, brambly berry and black pepper nuiances of the pinot would work perfectly with the tender dark meat of the squab

Just coming back from Tuscany, I'm biased I must admit, but a nice 100% Sangiovese (chianti classico reserve) goes great with all game.

what about a nice Zinfandel? With wild boar for example a Peachy Canyon Zin is quite nice
