Looking for some bubbles for your next dinner party or celebration? Grab a bottle of Cava.
The sparkling wine market is unquestionably dominated by Champagne. Many people think that the other two, Cava and prosecco can be used interchangeably but there are many important differences in these wines.
95% of all production of this wine can be found in Catalonia, but there are seven other provinces in Spain where it can be produced. Many types of grapes can be used in Cava production including Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, but three native Catalan grapes are most commonly used.
These are Macabeu, Parellada, and Xarel·lo . Macabeu gives the wines fruity freshness, Parellada aroma and acidity, and Xarel·lo the structure. Cava has always been a delicious wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes, and at Fine Wines Direct UK we know it will only go from strength to strength.
Many of the wines we sell are exclusive to us, and you won’t find them anywhere else in the UK. We work hard to build strong working relationships with producers and vineyard owners in order to offer you, the customer, the best sparkling wine on the market.

Cava is a beautiful sparkling Spanish wine, which is made in the same way as Champagne but using different grapes. It can be classified in a number of different ways. One of them is by the amount of time it has been aged, which affects the flavour profile.
It can also be categorised by the amount of sugar it contains. Sugar levels can be varied depending on the amount of expedition liqueur added, which is usually a mix of base wine and sugar. The driest is Brut Nature, sugar is not added and it is Cava in its purest state. On the other end of the spectrum is Cava Dulce, which is indulgent, sweet and ideal for accompanying dessert.
