The bubbly is upon us!!! For those who love sparkling wines, this is a great time of year. For those who don’t or are just generally meh, the holidays ahead will prove to be a potentially dangerous territory rife with a mine field of lesser bubblies just waiting to hurt your body and soul.
Of course, the most well-known of sparkling wines is Champagne and while the quality of it can run all over the place (and honestly only gets interesting after the 30€ level) it’s generally a safe bet. There is no reason to go French though as we have a more than ample supply of our own sparkling here called, Cava.
Maybe you’ve been burned by a cheap Cava at some point that had you reaching for the floor after a wedding. Despite not being a true devotee, I can attest there are many out there that are delicious, full of depth, and of varying styles to keep you interested through the myriad of toasts you have ahead of you.
