Discovering the wine region of Cava

Cava is Spain's signature style of Sparkling wine, and the Iberian Peninsula's answer to Champagne. The traditional Grape varieties used in Cava were Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel-lo, but the Champagne varieties Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are also used. While the first Cava was produced exclusively in Catalonia - specifically in a small town called San Sadurní de Noya - modern Cava can be sourced from various regions of Spain. Aragon, Navarre, Rioja, Pais Vasco, Valencia and Extremadura have specific delimited areas that can benefit from the designation of origin.

In reality, less than 10% of Cava wines come from these regions. The heart of Cava production is still in San Sadurní de Noya. All the scattered areas share similarities in Climate, largely Mediterranean, with moderate rainfall. Most of the vineyards are at around 200-300 metres (650-985ft), although some reach 800m (2,625ft).
