Stir in the oregano, cumin, and bay leaves. Add in the wine, water, hominy, green chile, and the ancho and cook over low heat for at least 1 hour. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
    2. To prepare the red chile sauce:Heat 1 Tbsp. of the oil and saute/fry the onions and garlic till the onions are limp. Heat the remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a heavy frying pan, stir in the flour, and lightly brown to make a roux. Add in the chicken broth and stir till smooth. Add in the tomato sauce, chile pwdr, cumin, salt, and garlic-onion mix. Simmer over very low heat till smooth and well blended. Add in more chicken stock or possibly water if necessary to thin the sauce.
    3. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Ladle the posole into bowls and serve with the red chile sauce on the side. This is great for a buffet supper and goes well with guacamole salad and blue corn tortillas.
