Directions
Lightly Toast black pepper on med-high heat in a saucepan that is big enough to hold all that wine.
Add cardamom, cloves, star anise, cinnamon sticks and continue toasting for a few minutes until aromas fill the air
Add blueberries, fresh ginger and ground spices to the skillet and stir until blueberries begin to break down
Add citrus peels and bay leaf and stir for another minute
Add orange juice, honey, sugar, red wine and Kina-Rouge. Turn down heat to low.
Heat mixture but do not let boil! (In fact, if you have a thermometer do not let it go above 74C or you’ll boil off all the alcohol!)

Strain and serve immediately or let cool and store in the wine bottles for use later
