The 'Hommage Francois Hemart' from Henri Giraud is a fantastic blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, which was aged 3 years on its lees in stainless steel. The complex aromas of pear, green apple, toasted brioche, wet stones, key lime, smoke, vanilla, and flowers are absolutely gorgeous as they jump out of the glass. This possesses a beautiful elegance with exceptional focus and purity as well as wonderful minerality. The finish dazzles with lively acidity and beautiful freshness.
