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.
Berry Tiramisù
This fruity, summery version of tiramisù was invented by Letizia Mattiaci, a cook in Umbria who teaches cooking classes in her home kitchen, high in the hills above Assisi. Berries and cream are, of course, a classic combination, but putting them together this way makes for a beguiling dessert. The berries give off a delicious violet juice that is used to soften the ladyfingers, just as strong coffee is used in the traditional recipe.
