Pour 100 ml of water into a saucepan, add 1/4 cup of sugar and ground cinnamon. Place over medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves. Cut the plum in half, remove the pit, and add the halves to the boiling syrup cut side down. Add wine and reduce the syrup over medium heat until thickened and all liquid evaporates. Remove from heat.

Meanwhile, in another saucepan, combine milk, ginger, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Place on heat, bring to a boil, and gradually sprinkle in semolina while stirring constantly until it thickens significantly — the porridge should turn with a spoon but with effort. Remove from heat, add peach puree, and mix. Return to heat and cook while stirring constantly until thickened again. Remove from heat, cover with a lid, and let sit for a minute.
