For the compote, peel, quarter, core, and slice the pears. Bring the wine, sugar, and lemon juice to a boil. Simmer the pears gently in the wine stock for about 10 minutes, then remove. Mix the cornstarch with a little cold water. Reduce the wine stock by half, then thicken with the cornstarch. Return the pear slices to the compote and let the compote cool. For the porridge, heat the milk and water in a saucepan and dissolve the honey. Stir in the oats and cinnamon. Continue stirring for a few minutes to allow the oats to swell slightly. Enjoy the porridge with the compote.
