Bordelaise sauce is a classic French sauce that uses red wine from the Bordeaux region in Southwest France. It's rich and flavorful, so it takes just a small drizzle of Bordelaise sauce to perk up a simple grilled steak or slow-roasted beef. This tangy and savory red-wine sauce is also a great accompaniment to roasted potatoes.

Traditionally, the sauce would be made using a Bordeaux wine, but these wines are some of the most expensive in the world, so barring a Bordeaux, a good-quality dry red wine will suffice. These types of French wine are typically made with cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, and malbec grapes, and wines made with those grapes are perfect for making the sauce. Just remember: the better the wine, the better the sauce. Use something you would drink with your meal; you'll need one glass of wine for the sauce and can drink the rest when you eat.

There are many variations on Bordelaise sauce. Red wine and shallots are two key ingredients. Some classic recipes use veal stock, bone marrow, and demi-glace, or some combination of those. This particular recipe takes a simpler approach, preferring beef stock so you don't have to make the separate demi-glace sauce or use marrow. It's just as flavorful and can be made quickly right before serving time. If needed, it can be prepared up to a day in advance.

"The sauce was very good with steak. It took about 4 minutes to cook the wine and another 10 to 12 minutes to reduce after adding the beef stock. I ended up with about 1/2 to 2/3 cup of sauce." —Diana Rattray

  6. Continue cooking the Bordelaise by another 50% or until it has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon—otherwise known as having anappe consistency. In total, the Bordelaise should have reduced by 75% of its original volume by now.

  7. Pour the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve.

Tips

If you want to thicken the bordelaise sauce, prepare a beurre manie with about 1 tablespoon of softened butter and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour. Use your fingers or a fork to make a smooth paste. Place the strained sauce over medium-low heat. Add about 1 teaspoon to the sauce and whisk for about 1 minute. Repeat until the sauce reaches the desired consistency.

Recipe Variation

Bordelaise With Demi-Glace: Instead of beef stock, use 2 cups of demi-glace (homemade or made from store-bought concentrate). Demi-glace will make a slightly thicker sauce.

How to Make Bordelaise Sauce in Advance

If you are holding the sauce for later, lightly rub about 1 teaspoon of cold butter across the hot surface of the sauce to prevent a skin from forming. Alternatively, lay a piece of greaseproof parchment paper cut to the size of the pan onto the surface of the sauce. When ready to use, reheat it gently in a small saucepan.

How To Store and Freeze

  • Refrigerate bordelaise sauce in a covered, airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • For longer storage, freeze bordelaise sauce in airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • Reheat bordelaise sauce in a saucepan over low to medium-low heat until it heated through, or to at least 165 F.

What Is Nappe Consistency?

When making a sauce, the nappe (meaning "to coat") consistency refers to the point when the sauce has reached the desired texture and will coat the food evenly. To check, simply dip a tablespoon into the sauce and swirl it around. Lift the spoon and flip it over to look at the back. The sauce should have coated the spoon but if it quickly runs off, it is not yet thick enough and needs to cook longer.
