"mixing poultry with red is trashy"

That is absolute nonsense, Aemilia. Roast a chicken with onion and sage stuffing and serve it with Chardonnay? Of course not! A Chianti or a nice big Burgundy. It's like saying you have to serve Austrian Gruner Veltliner everytime a newborn is being served-- the far more important issue is how are you cooking the little bastard!
