Cava and champagne, the kings of the toast
We human beings like to toast. It is intrinsic in our DNA, we love to get up, to make the cup sound so that everyone pays attention to us, to release an emotional speech and to toast to the health of those present and those absent. Or, at least, if we don't like so much paraphernalia, we crash our drinks simply wishing us health and prosperity in the years we have left. What is sure is the toast, it always walks with us.
New year's entries, births, weddings, birthdays, promotions... Any occasion deserves the moment of a toast. And what do we do it with? Not with water, it brings bad luck. There are those who do it with what they have at hand, be it beer, wine or distillates. But if you want to toast the right way, you have to do it with cava or champagne, the kings of toasts.
Composition of cava and champagne
At this point, you're probably wondering what we call cava and champagne. Nothing more and nothing less than sparkling wines. Grape is the main element that gives life to these two products, although it is not the only one, since sugar plays an essential role in their creation. Both cava and champagne, within their differences, share a father. This was Dom Pierre Perignon, a 17th century abbot who devised the champagnoise method, consisting of fermenting the wine in two phases, the first in a vat and the second in the bottle, where sugar is added or the residual of the first fermentation is maintained. It remains in the bottle for a minimum of nine months, inclined on shelves and giving the container an eighth of a turn each day. After that time the bottle is uncorked to remove the yeast and is covered again, ready to market.
But, as we said, cava and champagne also have differences between them. The two designations of origin, Spanish and French respectively, are separated into the types of grape, Chardonnay or Pinot Noir in the case of champagne and Xarello or Macabeo in the case of cava; in the climate, cold and rainy champagne and pleasant and constant in cava; or the type of soil, acid and poor in substrate the French and calcareous and clayey the Spanish.
But, in addition to these two types of sparkling wines, we also find other varieties within its category:
- Cava
- Champagne
- Sparkling
- Alcohol-free

History of cava and champagne
As we said a few lines above, history attributes the invention of sparkling wines to the Benedictine friar Pierre Perignon, known as Dom Perignon. Although his contribution was surely key to the evolution of this type of wine, the truth is that there are also references to previous thinkers who "played" with bubbles, as is the case of the Catalan friar Francesc Eiximenis in the fourteenth century, and even its appearance in times of ancient Rome.
