Grosjean Mas du Jario Blanc de Noir Extra Brut 2019 - Pioneering Alpine Sparkle
Discover a groundbreaking expression of Alpine terroir with Grosjean Mas du Jario Blanc de Noir Extra Brut 2019 (750ml, 11% ABV). This remarkable sparkling wine holds the distinction of being the first Blanc de Noir(s) produced in the Valle d’Aosta, a testament to Grosjean's innovative spirit and meticulous craftsmanship. Made entirely from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, this Metodo Classico (traditional method) sparkling wine offers an exquisite journey of complexity and finesse.
Crafted with precision, the wine undergoes a partial malolactic fermentation, adding a layer of creamy texture and depth. It then spends an impressive 36 months on its lees before disgorgement, building intricate brioche and autolytic notes. Disgorged in 2022, the dosage varies slightly with each vintage, but is always kept below 3 grams per liter, ensuring an "Extra Brut" profile that perfectly dials in the wine’s impeccable balance and lengthens its elegant finish.
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: The nose offers a sophisticated blend of delicate red berries, particularly wild strawberry and red currant, intertwined with classic autolytic notes of toasted brioche, fresh almond, and a hint of white flower. A subtle minerality, reminiscent of crushed stone, underpins the fruit.
- Palate: On the palate, this Blanc de Noir is wonderfully crisp and vibrant, with a fine, persistent mousse. Flavors of tart red cherry, cranberry, and a touch of citrus zest are beautifully balanced by a creamy texture and a subtle yeasty richness. The partial malolactic fermentation contributes a nuanced softness, while the extended lees aging adds layers of complexity without overpowering the wine's inherent freshness. The "Extra Brut" dosage ensures a dry and precise character.
- Finish: The finish is long, elegant, and exceptionally clean, leaving a lingering impression of red fruit, a delicate minerality, and a refreshing hint of salinity.
The Grosjean Mas du Jario Blanc de Noir Extra Brut 2019 is a pioneering and truly captivating sparkling wine, perfect as an aperitif or paired with delicate seafood, cured meats, or a rich risotto.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
