The Wine
Experience
Spanish Cava
In Spanish the word
cava means cellar. but when it comes to wine, Cava is the Champagne
of Spain.
When you think sparkling
wine you probably think of Champagne, but two of the world's largest
producers of traditional method sparkling wine like Champagne
are from Spain, and they even have offspring wineries in California
too.
Cava and Champagne
share more than bubbles. Cava has been made the same way as
Champagne since the 1800's - but using native Spanish grapes of
course. Most come from the area near Barcelona called Penedes.
The methode champenoise,
or traditional method, results in a higher quality wine with more
delicate bubbles.
The sparkler undergoes
a second fermentation and aging in the bottle. which is when it
gets fizzy.
Spanish Cava are
really priced to enjoy anytime you want something fun and bubbly.
