Toasted pecans add a pleasing crunch to this fruity condiment. If you make it a few days ahead, leave out the nuts until just before serving so they'll remain crunchy. Leftovers are great on a turkey sandwich with horseradish or cream cheese.

This is a great recipe. I actually get requests to make this for Thanksgiving.

One of the best cranberry sauces I've had! Exactly sweet enough, and a wonderful something extra from the figs and deep red wine flavor. Serve leftovers on cream cheese and turkey sandwiches - amazing. Like a grown-up version of the cream cheese-and-jelly I had as a kid.

I made a double batch for Thanksgiving at my in-laws. My sister in-law packed up the leftovers in one container. I was able to retrieve half of what was leftover. I absolutely LOVED it! Not too tart for those who like it a little sweeter. I believe the figs and wine helped. It could be dangerous though. This will be served again.
