2. Add the cranberries and reduce the heat to low. Gently stir to combine with sugar and wine. After ⏱️ 3 minutes, squeeze the juice from the orange quarters into the pan. Add two of the squeezed orange quarters as well as the cinnamon stick, allspice, bay leaf, and salt. Stir often and cook another ⏱️ 10-15 minutes until the cranberries begin to burst and the sauce thickens.

3. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool for ⏱️ 10 minutes. Remove and discard the orange quarters, cinnamon stick, allspice berries and bay leaf, and set the compote aside to cool completely. Depending on the texture of sauce you like, you may want to put the finished compote in a blender or food processor and purée. I just left mine as is because I like having the whole berries.
