Red wine reduction is a flavorful sauce made by simmering red wine with ingredients like onions, garlic, herbs, and sometimes stock or a sweetener, such as sugar or honey, to create a rich, concentrated liquid. Rooted in French cuisine, it’s commonly used to enhance meats, vegetables, or pasta with its tangy, complex taste. While red wine itself contains antioxidants like resveratrol, which may support heart health, cooking significantly reduces alcohol content but preserves some beneficial compounds. However, added sugar or butter (if used to finish the sauce) can increase calorie and fat content, so portion size matters. Red wine reduction is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, adding both depth of flavor and a touch of culinary sophistication to meals.
