This is the perfect recipe for a fall dessert. The pears are perfectly spiced and the sauce is rich and flavorful.

I'm not a fan of port wine, so I used red wine instead. The pears still turned out great.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pears were really tough. I'm going to try the recipe again and see if I can get better results.

The pears were a little too soft for my taste, but the sauce was amazing. I'll try again with firmer pears next time.
