Do not allow the onions to burn. If the pan gets too dry, add a small amount of water
When the onions are a rich brown color (about 30 minutes), add the Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon and cook for another three minutes or until the wine is completely absorbed. Remove from heat
Add cream cheese, sour cream and yogurt to the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until smooth on medium low speed
Turn the mixer down to the lowest speed and add the onions. Add seasonings to taste
