First, purée dates in food processor to form a thick paste.
Next, place raisins and wine in a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 5 minutes until the wine absorbs into raisins and alcohol is released. Add this mixture to the dates in the food processor along with almonds, spices and zest.
Process, scraping the sides of the bowl or breaking up the ball that may form until almonds are coarsely chopped and completely incorporated into the mixture. Then remove from processor and transfer to a mixing bowl.
Next, form the mixture into 1-inch balls and roll in your palms until smooth, using about 1 tablespoon each.
Finally, roll the balls in almond flour until completely coated. This will result in bite-sized servings that are easy to handle. However, if you prefer a more spreadable version, serve the paste as is without rolling into a ball.
Store, covered, at room temperature until ready to serve.
