Marques de Caceres Cava
Pairs with: Fried calamari, traditional Spanish tapas, or a board of Manchego cheese and Jamón Ibérico
Good for: Popping open to kick off a celebration without breaking the bank, or turning an ordinary Tuesday evening into a festive occasion
Grape: Xarel-lo, Macabeo, and Parellada (the classic Cava blend)
I am from: Penedès, Spain (D.O. Cava)
The Story: While Marqués de Cáceres is globally famous for being a legendary Rioja producer, they ventured into Spain's premier sparkling wine region to craft this traditional-method bubbly. They bring their meticulous attention to detail and decades of winemaking expertise to this Cava, ensuring a premium experience.
Why You'll Love Me: It delivers traditional Champagne-method elegance at a fantastic value. You will see a lively, persistent stream of fine bubbles and taste refreshing notes of crisp green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers, all backed by a subtle, savory hint of toasted brioche. It is vibrant, beautifully balanced, and finishes refreshingly dry.
