Anticipating the forthcoming cava tasting and publication of 50 Great Cavas 2014.
Ready to raise a glass to the 50 Great Cavas of 2014? The Call for Cavas is well underway with early entries from Agusti Torello, Capita Vidal, Castell D’or, Canals & Munne, Dominio de la Vega, Gramona, Pep Wines, Vallformosa, Pere Ventura, Unión Vinícola del Este to name just a few.
Blind tastings are scheduled for mid-May 2014.
While taste tests chiefly determine cava investments, wine enthusiasts also appreciate a handsome bottle on the shelf. Wineries ought to invest in good product design. While some might argue that form follows function, there’s no denying that we are naturally drawn to aesthetics. Those looking to gift cava to friends and family are also more likely to pick presentable bottles. Here are a handful of this year’s contenders we deem especially eye-catching:
-
- Pere Venture’s blushing Tresor Rosé looks remarkably palatable in its pink packaging
-
- Here’s a cava you’d be proud to pop open while entertaining guests. ‘Gala de Vallformosa,’ a Brut Gran Reserva from Vallformosa winery is elegance at its best.
-
- Dionysus’ Brut Nature is one of our few organic contenders by Canals & Munne. The bottle’s label seamlessly conveys Canals & Munne’s commitment to producing quality eco-friendly cava.
-
- Capità Vidal’s stately Gran Reserva comes complete with a wax stamp – a seal of excellence!
-
- Sleek and sophisticated describes both the flavors and finish of Papet del Mas’s Cava Brut.
-
- Agustí Torelló Mata’s Gran Reserva 2009 comes in a bottle embossed with the cava’s logo.
Stay tuned for the publication of 50 Great Cavas 2014.which is expected to be available from 1 July 2014
