Me and the hubby thought this was a decent inexpensive recipe, but didn't LOVE it. I might try a differnet wine next time and play around with the spices.

A bit strong at the beginning, but mellowed as it cooked. Our fondue pot set the wine on fire twice which made for some entertaining moments. Mushrooms cooked in the wine were wonderful. We used Chardonnay and cooked scallops, shrimp, pork tenderloin, beef sirloin, chicken breast, broccoli, potatoes and mushrooms. Also made a curry sauce, cocktail sauce and lemon-garlic sauce to go with the meal.

This worked well with chicken and broccoli. It was also great for dipping fresh baked bread. It worked OK with mushrooms.

I thought this was great for the seafood but didn't work as well for the veggies. The veggies soaked up a LOT of the wine flavor and it was overpowering.

This fondue is wonderful! I doubled the recipe so that my larger fondue pot would have enough in it and it worked great. We dipped beef tenderloin, shrimp, scallops, green peppers, brocolli, red onion, cauliflower, and mushrooms. I would make this in a heartbeat. I have never strained something in cheesecloth before but that is super easy. I also used a very inexpensive ($3) bottle of Pinot Grigio-Chardonney wine. Delicious. I made it for 10 people (we also had a broth fondue) and it was plenty.

I had a wine fondue party and used this broth with chicken, scallops, filet and schrimp. I will definately do this one again. I also used some sauces for dipping, but you could skip them if you like subtle flavors. I also used a chardonnay wine (2 buck chuck) which worked great!

Nice fondue recipe! I used a Chardonnay that I found for $3.50 (haha) that was great for cooking! I was worried it was going to be a little strong so I added a cup of chicken broth (not the low sodium kind) and omitted the salts. I also added some crushed garlic, a spring of thyme, and some chopped parsley. Versatile recipe. The alcohol is definately strong at first. Let it boil a bit if if you'd rather it cook out a bit. I used this with chicken strips, shrimp (they cook fast!), sea scallops, and mushroom. YUM.

Awsome, would make this again in a heartbeat! we did shimp and scallops and a variety of fresh veggies (mushrooms, peppers, snap peas scallions). It got even better as the wine cooked down, more intense flavor. I did need to double it to get the volume for the fondue pot. Be sure to use wine you would want to drink.

I doubled the recipe and made it for a group of 6. Everyone enjoyed it!! It was very tasty and much healthier than an oil fondue. We had it with chicken, scallops and shrimp. All 3 tasted great cooked in the wine!!! Thanks for a great new recipe.

Absolutely fabulous; loved this recipe, was so sure I would be missing the familiar much lovde tastes of traditional cheese or oil fondue, wich I do so love. But no, this much healthier version dose not disappoint. All the fun and flavor of traditional fondue without all the guilt.I doubled the spices as well as the wine as others had suggested and was not disappointed but I neglected to strain the wine spice mixture before cooking, not a problem until near the end when the wine had cooked down quite a lot and you did come into up close contact with the spices (in your mouth) not good. In the future I maylet the spices simmer with the wine for some time but would try to strain them out befor too long. I made this for a friend after a long day at work; she came over for a glass of wine and was so suprised and delighted. It was so easy I was almost embarrassed, we had shrimp,scallops,chicken,green pepper, onion and mushrooms to cook.Evreything was good but the shrimp jumped out as the star, plumped up by the wine it would literally burst in your mouth with an unexpected explosion of flavor.I only purched a handful of each at the local supermarket on the way home. The scallops were also tasty not at all rubbery, but next time I will buy the larger size.Next in prefence were probaly the mushrooms also magnifing and compounding the flavors.The chicken was good but did not compare to the seafood. I would recommend this recipe to evreyone.

On taste, this was five stars! On quantity, it wasn't enough. Maybe we just have a big fondue pot, but we poured it in, and it wouldn't even cover a piece of food! So we just added another half bottle of wine, and it was fine. I'll definately be doubling this next time.

This was great!!! I took it to a fondue party and I got rave reviews! I did let it set for a little more than an hour. I got busy doing other things. I think this only served to help the flavor.

I have made this twice for fondue parties and it is a hit! I find it is best with mushrooms; my non-veggie friends like chicken. It takes a little longer to cook things than oil fondue, but your extra patience is worth the flavor!

We liked this very much. We have been dieting and really wanted to do a fondue for dinner--most are so fattening though. This was light and pretty much guilt free! I served whole grain bread on the side and dipped that in as well instead of using butter--that was REALlY GOOD! Make sure you season your meat! Will be making this one again for sure!

Truly excellent, especially with shrimp. I used ground spices since that was what I had on hand, and didn't take the time to let it sit. I appreciate carla29's suggestion to save the leftovers.

This worked out very well for my family. Much better than the old oil fondues. I set the wine on fire to burn off the alcohol, I have a 9 year old and a 13 year old.
