I'm not a fan of lamb, but my husband is. I made this recipe for him and he loved it. He said it was the best lamb he's ever had.

I didn't have any vin cotto, so I used balsamic vinegar instead. The lamb was still delicious, but I think the vin cotto glaze would have been even better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the lamb was overcooked. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time. The vin cotto glaze was delicious, though.
