The New Cava Isn’t Called Cava
"Google Maps can’t find Cava, Spain. Make sure your search is spelled correctly.”
This error message sums up the existential crisis facing Spain’s most famous fizzy wine. Unlike Champagne, cava refers not to a place, but a style of wine: namely, Spanish sparkling produced via the traditional Champagne method.

Three Misunderstood Topics in Spanish Wine
On the surface, Spain seems relatively straightforward as compared to the other top producers of wine worldwide. It has just 97 DOP-level regions—nothing like the nearly 400 appellations of France. Unlike Italy, which claims as many as 2,000 native varieties, Spain makes 88% of its wine from 20 core varieties.

Der Klimawandel und die Weinlese 2020
In weiten Teilen Europas ist die Weinlese in vollem Gange. Nicht überall wirkt sich der Klimawandel gleich aus. Während in südlichen Region höhere Temperaturen zu deutlich früherem Erntebeginn führten, ist dies in nördlichen Regionen diesmal weniger der Fall. Wetterextreme wie Dürre oder Starkregen hielten sich 2020 bisher fast überall in Grenzen. Allgemein können Delinat-Winzer eine gute Traubenqualität bei eher unterdurchschnittlicher Menge einfahren.

The Countries That Drank the Most Spanish Wine in 2019
Spain’s wine industry is unlike any other in the world. Though it has historically fallen behind France and Italy in popularity and prestige, data acquired from UN Comtrade shows that in 2019, Spanish wine producers exported nearly the same amount of wine as the other two industry-leading countries. Around 2.1 billion liters of Spanish wine were sent around the globe, which were valued at just over $3 billion. Italy also exported 2.1 billion liters of wine in 2019, but the total value was more than double that of Spain’s exports, clocking in at $7.2 billion. France exported just over 3 billion liters of wine with a value of nearly $11 billion. So why is Spanish wine so undervalued? The answer lies in bulk wine. Roughly a quarter of Spain’s wine exports are sent to France, where the country’s cheaply grown, high-yielding grapes are either turned into table wine or are blended and re-exported.

I tasted the wine blind, just before dinner was served. I tasted dark berries and some spices; the wine was powerful, fresh and lively. My guess was a 2016, maybe from the Rhône Valley.
