A friend of mine in California used to do a version of this with just some hot coffee (usually), but he heated the burgundy before he poured in the coffee. Heating the burgundy brought out more of the berry flavors....I am hosting a Holiday Open House on Sunday, and can't wait to make this again! I believe I am going to follow this recipe as well....Happy Holidays to all....Tonawanda, NY
