Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring wine, 1 cup sugar, and cinnamon to boil in large saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Boil until reduced to 1 cup, about 18 minutes. Cool syrup completely. Cover and chill until cold. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.

    Step 2

    Finely grate peel from 2 oranges. Mix peel and 1 tablespoon sugar in small bowl. Using small sharp knife, cut off peel and white pith from all oranges. Working over large bowl, cut between membranes to release segments. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover orange segments and sugared peel separately and chill. Divide oranges and juice among 8 bowls. Drizzle syrup over and sprinkle with sugared orange peel.
