Cava DO

Cava DO (Denominación de Origen) is a respected classification for sparkling wine produced in Spain’s Catalonia region, primarily from native grape varieties like Macabeo, Xarel·lo, and Parellada. To earn this status, Cava must be made following strict production standards, including specific vineyard locations, grape growing practices, and traditional methods like bottle fermentation. The classification ensures quality and authenticity, similar to Champagne in France. Cava offers a range of styles from crisp and fresh to complex and aged, making it a versatile and celebrated sparkling wine option rooted in Catalonian tradition.
