Tart Cherry Pinot-Noir Syrup

Ingredients:
2 cups dried tart cherries (3/4 pound)
2 cups Pinot Noir
½ cup sugar

Directions:
Combine all of the ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cherries to a medium bowl. Simmer the wine over moderate heat until syrupy and reduced to ¾ cup, about 8 minutes. Transfer the Pinot Noir syrup to a small bowl to cool, then stir in the cherries. Serve at room temperature. Makes 2 cups. (CAN BE REFRIGERATED FOR 1 WEEK)
