Cava quality standards

Cava quality standards ensure that this Spanish sparkling wine meets specific criteria for production and taste. It must be made primarily from traditional grape varieties, like Macabeo, Parellada, and Xarel-lo, and follow strict methods from the traditional champagne technique. The wine is aged for a minimum period, allowing it to develop its bubbles and flavors. Cava producers also adhere to hygiene, vineyard, and production regulations to maintain consistency. These standards guarantee that Cava is authentic, high-quality, and offers a reliable sensory experience, balancing freshness, complexity, and fine bubbles characteristic of the traditional method.
