Wash the quinces thoroughly and rub off any fuzz with a brush or cloth. Halve the quinces and carefully remove the core. In a large saucepan, caramelize 400g of sugar until lightly browned. Add the wine, half a liter of water, the lemon juice, cinnamon, and cloves, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes (until the quinces are soft). Preheat the oven to 250°C and grease the baking tray. Place the quince halves cut-side up on the baking tray and drizzle with some of the liquid. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the quinces and bake until golden brown.
