With this in mind:

Sweet Potato mash and Zin.

Found this article that I think is pretty good overall view of the food & wine conundrum...a more balanced look at the subject.

I'm now reading a book called _Perfect Pairings_ by one Evan Goldstein. I was surprised to read that "... Lamb and Pinot Noir are time-honored partners, ...." And there's a recipe of lamb kebabs to pair with "aged, developed" pinots. Now, I must admit I've never tried this pairing but lamb is one of the stronger flavored meats in my experience and I've always chosen a pretty robust wine to go with it.

Anyone have any good experiences with this pairing?

Mozart, some acrylics, a piece of canvas and a glass of wine.

Agreed. PN is far down on my list of pairings for lamb.
