Cava recipes
Cava is a Spanish sparkling wine produced in the same meticulous way as champagne. It is much less costly than Champagne and just as reliable, although the local Spanish grapes tend to give a much more simple, neutral style of wine.
Buyer's guide
Choose a 'brut' (dry) style for a refreshingly tangy party fizz, and offer your guests a choice of drinking it on its own, or as a base for a sparkling cocktail with orange juice, or creme de cassis.
Storage
Store in a cool cellar or the fridge.
Preparation
Serve well chilled.
