7 sparkling wines (blind tasting) - prize by drawing for those who guess correctly

Most probably think that it goes without saying that Champagne tastes better than Cava, but does this seemingly obvious truth hold up when you don't know what's in the glass?

If you think Champagne is one of the ultimate luxury wines, you may be right !

If you think Cava is something you buy when you can't afford Champagne you may be wrong !

The reality is that both wine types come in many different qualities just like any other wines. They are both made using the traditional method, where each bottle is its own mother to the bubbly contents. They both age on the lees in this bottle for a shorter or longer period of time. The big difference is that while Champagne is made under northernhemispheric climates, and therefore provides more acidity to the wine, and thus more flavor and aroma from the lees, Cava is made by the Mediterranean where the grapes develop lots of fruity flavors, which is why the lees can take a bit of a back seat. At the same time, Cava in its traditional form is made from some other grape varieties than Champagne. What you prefer may come down to a trial, and you can be part of that challenge when we serve 7 blind wines. You naturally give ratings along the way. It's all just fun and games and of course a lot of good company in a cozy spring atmosphere. Now you might be thinking that Cava is much cheaper than Champagne. We don't promise that's the case for this tasting, which will only present top wines from both regions.
