Add red wine and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; cook until wine is nearly evaporated and pan juices are thick and slightly syrupy. Watch carefully as the mixture burns easily. Add veal stock, return to a simmer, and cook until reduced by half and sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
