Recently, I bought some pinot noir that I just didn’t like. It was on sale and well, I can see why. It sat around for a while awaiting a purpose. This weekend, I found purpose for that bottle: jelly, more specifically a spicy pinot noir jelly. I think it would make a wonderful hostess gift or addition to a gift basket. I canned it up in 4 ounce jars, which just seemed to be the perfect size for gift giving.

I have powered pectin can I still use it with this recipe or does it have to be liquid?

I haven't tested it with the powdered kind so I'm not sure. It might not gel as well with the powdered kind...

Loving this! I saw you through the Canning Across America Flickr post, then I followed you here from your link on the flickr page.
I'm interested to try this! I would ask what it even tastes like... but honestly, for 2 cups of wine, I'm going to try it no matter what! You've thoroughly convinced me with that beautiful picture, haha.
Loving your blog, am adding you to my Google Reader!

Oh that sounds amazing! Such a great idea too for wine that isn't what you expected.

A-HA!!! Good thinking, have been gone awhile, but this is fantastic.
I tried Pinot Noir once and nope to spicy for me, but this is great, would make a perfect gift.

Sounds like a great idea. Its always gratifying to find a new use for something and not let it go to waste.
