    Cook onion in reserved fat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened.

    Add the flour, cook for 1 minute stirring constantly and then add the chicken broth, potatoes, salt and pepper.

    Add wine and simmer 1 minute. Reduce heat to low and gradually stir in cheese (do not let boil).
    To serve, ladle soup into individual bowls and sprinkle with bacon.

    Makes about 6 cups.
