Stew the cherries gently in the wine with the sugar and spices until the cherries are soft. Remove cinnamon and cloves. Purée 1/2 cup of the cherries with 1 cup of the liquid and the egg yolks (beaten with a little of the hot liquid first) and return to the pan. Add the lemon rind and taste for seasoning.
Serve cold or hot.
