Check out Raventos I Blanc!! Pepe (the winemaker) took them out of the Cava DO because he thought too much bulk crap was representing the category. His wines are around the £20 mark and are stupidly delicious

Awesome, thanks for the recommendation -- looks like it goes for about the same over here, we'll try to track some down and lyk what we think!

Barthelona 😂! Love the table comparing the regions! That coup-de-Cava was crazy...right. Such striking visuals, and so so interesting to think about it from the French growers' perspective. Thanks for this cool overview of Cava. I'm not a bubbly person (says the girlie who's found herself 'forced' to drink HQ trad method sparklings for most of this month), but I occasionally enjoy Cava. So it's great to have this recap as well as your recommendations.

Glad you enjoyed it! I imagine you have no shortage of great Cap Classique at your fingertips as well -- we'll have to do a feature on those one day and get your thoughts. Cheers!
