Sugar and corn starch should temper an acidic dish.

x2 the brown sugar should do the trick, cornstarch will help pull the liquids together.

Oops, you are right.. I was thinking baking soda... But yes cornstarch will tie it together and slightly mellow.

@aart here's some pictures of the sauce in progress.

The mushrooms I ended up getting.

Sauted down with oranges added

Adding sprigs of thyme and a local Zinfandel

The reduction getting butter

Au jus added, reduced, butter and a bit more wine

My cornstarch slurry, about a one ounce ladles worth of sauce

Slurry added and thickened.
And there it is, ended up getting titled a mushroom rague. Not a fan of the name so I'll make sure to give my next sauce one if it doesnt.
