Notes

Footnote: I didn't really give you any suggestions on which wine to use besides being dry. If I may, here are a couple of suggestions on the kinds of wine you might want to use in this recipe - Torres Sangre de Torro or other Garnacha, any Primitivo as well as Cabernet Sauvignon. Try to avoid wines with big tannins (i.e. Bordeaux) or the opposite, the ones without enough such as Gamay, Pinot Noir, etc.
