Cheese with a Communard

  
Most of you sophisticats will have heard of Kir (white wine & creme de cassis) or my favourite, Kir Royale (with champagne) But who knows what a Communard is?
 
I was digging into the cheese board late the other night and really craved a glass of Port - red wine just didn't cut it on this occasion.......Then I had a brainwave - yes, you've guessed where this is going!
 
I thought that red wine and creme de cassis was my own invention, but no: it's called a Communard Cocktail. Did the trick too!
