You can also make this into a tapa by filling mini fillo shells with the brie and a small spoonful on top. For a dessert, try serving on homemade vanilla ice cream. The figs can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for a couple of weeks.

Ingredients

1 bag of dried figs
1 bottle of Bokisch Late Harvest Graciano
1 cup brandy
1 large wedge of triple crème brie

Instructions

Mix all the ingredients together in a cast iron Dutch oven or soup pot.
Bring to a boil then simmer until the figs are reconstituted and the Graciano and brandy have reduced. (Add more wine/brandy if necessary)
Let cool, strain the figs (keep the juice) and chop into bite sized pieces.
Mix back into the juice and spoon over the brie upon serving.
