This fabulous, spiced wine cranberry sauce recipe is a family favorite developed years back and anticipated at everyThanksgiving! This year I'm putting a spin on it swapping out Zinfandel for Slayer (51% Cabernet / 18%Petit Verdot / 15% Tannat / 12% Zinfandel / 4% Petite Sirah)! I hope yourfamily enjoys this rich, sweet, tangy cranberry sauce as much as mine! ~ SAMZinPunk
