Sauternes peaches

Use the perfect white peaches of mid-summer for this sublime dish — and take it to even greater heights by adding lychees and raspberries to the syrup when serving. To be extravagant, cook the peaches in the French wine of the Rhone region — perhaps Muscat de Beaumes de Venise — and drink the wine with the dessert.

Your tastebuds will be in a state of nirvana!
