cava
Catalan sparkling wine
Cava is a sparkling wine from Spain, made using the same traditional method as Champagne—secondary fermentation in the bottle.
Most cava comes from the Catalonia region.
The word also refers to the Spanish wine cellars where it's produced.
We ordered a bottle of cava to celebrate.
