I'm not a big fan of red wine, so I used white wine instead. The cherries still turned out great.

This recipe was a hit! The cherries turned out perfectly tender and flavorful, and the red wine sauce was rich and complex. I served it over vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect ending to a romantic dinner.
