100 ml red wine
70 ml ruby port
100 ml chicken stock

Steps:

  • About one hour before cooking score the skin of the duck and season, set aside.

Add the wine and the port and reduce by half then add the stock. Bring back to the boil and then strain through a fine sieve, reserve half the grapes and push the remainder through the sieve. Return the sauce to the pan and reduce until a syrupy consistency. Finish the sauce with the butter. Return the grapes to the sauce and keep warm.
