Prosecco on the terrace, champagne for a special occasion, and cava... Cava is always suitable. As a drink with snacks, lunch, or celebrations. It is a bit drier than prosecco, with citrus, blossom, a pinch of Mediterranean herbs, and therefore also suitable at the table. Compared to champagne, it comes across milder due to its softer acids and is not afraid of spicy tapas. This fresh, creamy cava comes from Codorníu, a house with a long history in winemaking going back more than 450 years. Around 1880, Josep Raventós Fatjos, a member of the Codorníu family, began making sparkling wine as he had learned during a visit to Champagne. He kept the preparation the same, but his grapes were of Spanish origin, creating a sparkling wine with its own style: cava. To this day.
