Add wine and reduce until mixture is almost dry. Add cream, salt and pepper to taste; stir. Remove from heat and and let cool to room temperature. .
- When the topping is cooled to room temp, pour into the tart crust. Sprinkle on the crumbled goats cheese. Bake for about 15 more minutes, until the cheese is golden brown.
