Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a medium saucepan, combine the Pinot Noir, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.

02

Step
30 mins

Place the saucepan over low heat and gently simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. (Approximately 30 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Continue simmering until the sauce has reduced to your desired consistency, thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This may take longer depending on your stove and the initial volume of the wine.

04

Step
5 mins

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken further as it cools.

For a richer flavor, consider using a more full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, depending on the sweetness of the wine and your desired level of sweetness.
A pinch of nutmeg or a star anise can add extra depth of flavor to the sauce. Add them during the simmering process and remove before serving.
This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat gently before serving.

    I made this with a cheaper bottle of wine and it still turned out amazing! Such an easy way to elevate a simple dessert.
