  Greengage Compote Recipe - Mrs Beeton Revisited from The Foody
Make the syrup, skim it well and add the greengages when the syrup is boiling, having previously removed the stalks and stones from the fruit.
Boil gently for 1/4 hour, or until the fruit is tender; but take care not to let it break, as the appearance of the dish would be spoiled were the fruit reduced to a pulp.
Take the greengages carefully out, place them on a glass dish, boil the syrup for another 5 minutes, let it cool a little, pour over the fruit, and, when cold, it will be ready for use.

 winemaking: wild greengage wine
Greengages (subspecies of Prunus), sometimes Americanized as Green Gage, are a European plum sometimes found in the wild as an escapee from cultivation.
Most wild greengage trees grow from 5 to 9 feet high with low branches and rounded head.
Wild greengages make an excellent wine that requires considerably less aging than plum, damson, sloe, or cherry wines.
