What is cava?
Cava is a Spanish sparkling wine made using the traditional method, the same system used to produce Champagne. This process involves a second fermentation inside the bottle, which creates its characteristic fine and complex bubbles.
To be labeled as Cava, the wine must age in the bottle for a minimum of nine months. Depending on the aging time, different categories exist, such as young Cava, Reserva, or Gran Reserva.
The most commonly used grape varieties in the production of cava are:
-
Macabeo
-
Xarel·lo
-
Parellada
-
Chardonnay
-
Pinot Noir
These grapes contribute fresh aromas, fruity notes and a balanced acidity that make cava an elegant and very versatile drink.

The municipality of Sant Sadurní d’Anoia is considered the capital of cava. It is home to some of the most important wineries in Spain and extensive underground cellars where millions of bottles rest during their aging process.
