Cut the plums into large chunks, then place in a heavy-bottomed saucepan along with the wine, brown sugar and honey.
Simmer over a gentle heat for 10 minutes – the plums should stay whole.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Spoon the plums onto a plate and drizzle with the syrup.
Serve each with a meringue and a sprinkling of icing sugar.
