Shallot and Red Wine Sauce
"This is from BBC food. I'd serve over steak, filet of beef, pork tenderloin... and I even like it on sea bass (but don't fault me if you don't!) :-)"

I made this to go over a pepper crusted venison tenderloin for my husband's client. It was a huge hit and went great with the game. Also tasted good on the potatoes that I cooked with it! I'll make this one again.
