Serves 6 to 8

1 quart strawberries (organic preferred), hulled
1 cup sweet white wine (Moscato or Late Harvest Riesling)
1 pound soft Mascarpone cheese
2 to 4 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

1. Set aside 6 attractive berries for garnish. Halve the remaining ones and combine with the wine. Refrigerate several hours.
