Directions

1. 1

   In a sauce pan, reduce the wine to a light syrup consistency, 30-45 minutes but keep an eye on it.

   In a medium sauté pan, add oil, vegetables, and peppercorns. Cook until the vegetables are soft. Add garlic and continue cooking for a few minutes. Add sauterne and quickly deglaze pan.

3. 3

   Add wine syrup, stock, thyme, bay leaf, and parsley. Reduce by a third, and pour sauce through a fine sieve. In a clean sauce pan, continue reducing until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
