Cava wine is a special type of sparkling wine that is produced in Catalonia and Andalucia, which are located near Barcelona. Cava is a word that originated from a green work which means “high end”. Caves played a large role in the production of cava wine over 100 years ago, which is another meaning for the word.

Cava wine is for anyone, whether you prefer a very dry or unsweetened wine, or a very sweet wine. Terminology is key when choosing a cava wine to drink, because Dulce is not the same as Brut. Cava wine is an elegant wine that has a great variety of flavors to explore and tingle your taste buds with. Many countries around the world create their own varieties of sparkling wine, but Cava can only be made in one area, but is distributed around the world for wine drinkers all around.

When purchasing this type of wine you have to look out for fakes, to be sure that you are really purchasing the high quality wine it claims to be. Cava wine can only come from very specific areas in Spain, and nowhere else. If a wine seller tries to sell you Cava wine from Germany or some other country, decline their offer and run away. True cava wine is superb in flavor and scent, and will not come cheap from “cheap” sources. Look for wine that is fermented in the bottle, and has a nice coloring to it. Remember to check for the type of grapes that the particular wine you want to purchase is made from, because the variety of grape is extremely important.
