Cava is a sparkling wine from Spain made in the exact same method as champagne and therefore has many of the same characteristics. The grapes that go into Cava are different to those used in Champagne, however, this is of little consequence to the final outcome which is generally of exceptionally high quality.
Some of the more famous names of Cava are Codorniu and Freixenet [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], both which offer excellent price and quality [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or for slightly lesser known, but equally as first-rate, try Cavas Hill or Segura Viudas [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your guests and your budget will thank you.

Prosecco is the perfect sparkling choice for a host of wild and wonderful cocktails. There are the established selections like the Kir Royale or Bellini (sparkling wine with cassis and peach respectively) or more unusual concoctions such as Arise My Love consisting of Crème de Menthe and sparkling wine or the French 75 that uses gin, lime juice, sugar topped up with sparkling wine. No matter what creation tickles your fancy and imagination for your New Year’s celebration, Prosecco is the perfect way to make it sparkle.
Prosecco is Italy’s answer to sparkling wine. As with most things in Italy, Prosecco possesses a certain flair. It is light, fresh and fun. Prosecco is actually the name of the grape variety as well as the style of wine. Many would be surprised to know that this grape is also used to make still wine, but the majority is used for the sparkling version. While Cava is made in the same, traditional way as is Champagne, Prosecco is produced differently which produces a wine that tends to be lighter, bubblier and sweeter.
While some Cava is matured for longer than the required nine months it spends on its lees, finding a vintage Cava is rare, but fear not as the non-vintage is absolutely lovely. Due to the secondary fermentation in bottle and the aging on lees, a good body and complexity of flavour are developed and it is not uncommon to find similar citrus, nutty and bready attributes as found in the more expensive French counterpart.
This year more than ever people are feeling the pinch of the financial climate, which is even more of a reason to herald in the new year in style and starting off on the right foot for 2009. Champagne has always been the quintessential drink for this special evening, it symbolizes celebration, romance and optimism, but you don’t have to break the bank to experience the same excitement. With a good Cava or Prosecco, you will enjoy all the same bubbly satisfaction at a fraction of the price for the French elixir.
