Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine fruit, sugar, lemon zest and juice, wine and sage in an
oven-safe saute pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 5
minutes.
The topping: Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, salt,
sage and butter in a processor. Pulse until butter is well
distributed; add milk and pulse until just combined. Do not overmix.
Drop dough in large soupspoon-size mounds onto the fruit, allowing a
little space between mounds. Cover and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. For
a crisper biscuit, uncover during the last 5 minutes of baking.
Sprinkle with the optional hazelnuts and serve warm with ice cream or
whipped cream.
