Terra Mädi Blanc de Noirs - Elegant Complexity from Red and White
Experience the intriguing character of Terra Mädi Blanc de Noirs, a captivating SPARKLING WINE from Freixenet Mexico's Finca Sala Vivé in Querétaro. Embracing the "Beloved Earth" philosophy, this sophisticated blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay is crafted using the traditional Champenoise Method, resulting in a sparkling wine of depth and finesse.
Tasting Notes:
- This Blanc de Noirs presents a transparent, clear, and bright appearance, showcasing a delicate straw yellow hue with subtle greenish flashes. A persistent medium-sized trail of fine beads gracefully rises, forming a lavish cordon de mousse on the wine's surface.
- The nose is elegant and fairly expressive, driven by delightful fruit-forward notes with prominent highlights of crisp pears, green apples, and zesty citrus.
- On the palate, this sparkling wine is dry and fresh, offering an ample mouthfeel. Intriguing highlights of lees linger in the aftertaste, adding complexity. The elegant perlage contributes to a refined texture, leading to a satisfying medium finish.
Pairings:
The Terra Mädi Blanc de Noirs offers versatile pairing options.
- Indulge in its delightful contrast with strawberries and chocolate, savor it alongside the spicy kick of patatas bravas (spicy fried potatoes), enjoy it with a variety of cheeses, or pair it with the richness of poultry dishes enhanced by lightly seasoned cream sauces.
- Serve well-chilled between 42 to 46 degrees Fahrenheit to fully appreciate its nuanced aromas and elegant effervescence.
Vinification & Aging Highlights:
- Crafted using the time-honored Champenoise Method, the Terra Mädi Blanc de Noirs undergoes its crucial second fermentation in the bottle, developing its intricate flavors and fine mousse.
- It is then aged sur lies (on its lees) for 18 months in the cellar, allowing the development of its characteristic elegance and subtle complexity.
- With a carefully balanced dosage of 16 g/L, this Blanc de Noirs offers a harmonious and dry yet subtly rounded finish.

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.
