Fresh thyme accentuates the herbaceous notes of Cabernet Franc. This gift makes a wonderful accompaniment to a cheese platter. – Adell Shneer

Ingredients

  • 1-3/4 cups Cabernet Franc wine or Merlot
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 large sprigs fresh thyme
  • 3-1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 pouch liquid pectin

Preparation

In large saucepan, bring wine, vinegar and thyme to boil over high heat. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 20 minutes. Strain through cheesecloth-lined sieve into clean saucepan.

Stir in sugar; bring to full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute, stirring. Remove from heat. Stir in pectin; stir for 1 minute, skimming off any foam.
