Really enjoyed this. I used chuck roast for the beef stew meat and 1 cup beef broth for 1 cup of the wine and we loved it. I really think 1 1/2 cups of wine would have been way too much for us. Loved the combination of flavors here. I did add some extra water (about a cup) I should have added more cornstarch since I added additional water. I slow cooked this for 8 hours and that was plenty for 2 1/2 pounds of chuck roast. Served this with Vegetable Strudel Thanks

    I made this awhile back and I think I should get to the review, lol. We aren't wine fans here so I used beef broth and that worked very well for this family. I put it on mashed spuds (it's a guy thing) and served it with peas and carrots. Basic but a real pleasing comfort dinner for us. Yummm!

    Although this recipe is described as perfect for cold winter nights, I made it during a sweltering summer forAus/NZ Recipe Swap #24. Well, I found that it's perfect for hot Australian summer nights too! The only problem I found was that it needed a little more water than suggested in the recipe - I added another cup and a half during the cooking time and it was perfect. Thanks for posting, Mary. A really delicious and easy meal.

    I used a chuck roast instead of the stew beef and just cut it at serving time into chunks.. It fell apart anyway while cooking so I just pulled the meat apart. Delicious blend of flavors and it made one delicious meal for us! About half way through cooking time I added potatoes and carrots to have with the roast. Yummy!
