Yield: 1 cup dressingTime (Start to Finish): 1 hour
Ingredients:
2 cups red wine
1 shallot
salt and pepper
olive oil
Directions:
1. In a sauce pan, place the wine and cook on med heat until it reduces by half
2. In skillet, take the shallot and chop fine. Cook it in the pan on med with salt and pepper and a little olive oil until it is either caramelized or translucent.
3. Add the shallot to the wine reduction and take of the heat and let cool
4. When making dressing, use however much wine you want, but it will be a 2-1 ratio, olive oil to wine. So, add 2 Tbsp of wine, and 4 Tbsp olive oil. You can add more if you like, and whisk while you combine them
5. Pour over greens or salad and enjoy!

Notes: I love wine reductions, and this one with the shallot is awesome. I always love caramelized onions and shallots. I just put it over mixed greens, nothing else, but you can put it on any salad you like. It was a tiring day, but this is pretty low maintenance. You just set it on the stove and let it reduce. Use a wine you would drink. I used 8 zinfandel. So so good! I hope you like it.

A few years ago while visiting San Diego and staying at the Hotel del Coronado, I had a spinach and strawberry salad at their restaurant that had a red wine reduction vinaigrette on it. could your recipe be similar to this? I think theirs might have had balsamic vinegar in it. Any tips? Their chef would not give me a recipe, but said it was a red wine reduction dressing.
