Make It

Bring boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
Measure wine into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot. Stir in pectin. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
Stir in sugar. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 5 min. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by newmexjags from Easy jelly, makes nice gifts I made a ton of this for my daughters wedding for wedding favors. I used 4 oz jars, and got some really cheap wine from Total Wine. Two Buck Chuck would work fine too. I used all kinds of dry and semi dry wines, red and white. Chardonnay, Merlot, Cab. I don't think I would use a sweet wine. They all came out great and I got a lot of compliments! Very pretty too! I omitted the butter because my daughter has vegan friends. Very little foaming. I plan on making this again to sell at the farmer's market.

Not only is this a good jelly to put onto crackers and cream cheese or bagels and cream cheese, it makes a great basting for baked, broiled, or bbq Chicken. I have made it for years and have never had a bad batch yet. The fact that the alcohol boils off is a benefit.

Great on English muffins. I know jelly recipes say not to double but I have successfully made a double batch of this jelly twice.

The sugar mellows out the wine taste....or is it that the alcohol cooks off in the boil process? I will do this again, and I'll experement with some more costly wines or champanges just to see how those turn out. The color light pink is pretty too. A great recipe, elegant to serve at brunch.
