The NV Brut Grand Cru Hommage Francois Hemart is one of my favorite wines from Ay that doesn’t cost a fortune. It boasts plenty of Pinot and village character in its rich layers of fruit. The wine blossoms beautifully on the mid-palate, leading to the rich, creamy finish. This is Lot O1L53E5. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2015. Importer: Old World Wines Inc., Destin, FL; tel.
