CRANBERRY SAUCE WITH PINOT NOIR



Cranberry Sauce With Pinot Noir image

Some of the best wine on the planet comes from Oregon, and with this recipe Jenn Louis, the chef behind Lincoln Restaurant and Sunshine Tavern in Portland, has found a way to weave it into the Thanksgiving feast: as a boon companion to cranberries. "Many deep red wines, or port, can overwhelm the punchy berry," said Ms. Louis. "Instead, Oregon pinot noir keeps the cranberry sauce bright and clean." The recipe here doesn't hold back; it is shot through with allspice, cloves, peppercorns, rosemary, cinnamon, vanilla and honey, in a mix that calls to mind the rusticity and abundance of the Pacific Northwest.
