PEACHES IN MUSCAT
Customarily in Italy you will find peaches steeped in red wine (to which a little sugar has often been added) and chilled. I love this, but prefer it made with Muscat wine, not least because red wine makes the peaches lose their golden intensity. I also love the honeyed muskiness of the dessert wine with the peaches; it is absolute nectar.

Steps:
- Over a bowl (to catch juices), peel and slice each peach, placing slices in bowl. (If peaches are hard to peel, they may be dipped in boiling water until skins loosen, up to 2 minutes.)
- Add Muscat to bowl and stir gently to make sure peaches are covered with wine. Cover bowl and refrigerate 2 to 6 hours.
- Transfer peaches and their liquid to a decorative glass serving bowl or individual bowls or wineglasses. Serve chilled with cream or ice cream, if desired.
