Hi FG - a god jus starts with good wine. If you wouldn't drink it, don't use it in cooking....
A jus is made from adding wine / port wine to the cooking pan, reducing and stiring up the crust from cooking, whisking in butter (unsalted) and straining before serving over the meal. A jus is not a gravy, so less is better than too much...
You can make a comparable one from reducing by a third in a seperate pan the wine, then adding diced butter to achieve a good glossy jus, but one from the cooking pan with the residue will be much better.
A port wine sauce, I'd suggest, should not have a red wine in it as they are two different wines and will give different results so personally would say do not mix,
Hoep that is some help..
