Leave to cool a little. In the meantime whip cream until semi-stiff. Cut the chocolate coating with a knife into long chocolate chips. Put the lukewarm wine stock and egg yolk into a metal bowl and whip until frothy on a hot water bath for about 5 minutes. Fold the cream into the wine mousse. Arrange 2 pear halves each with wine mousse and 1 scoop of chocolate ice cream. Decorate with mint leaves and chocolate shavings
