(00:50) Cava is not the new ‘kid on the block’.

(01:16) The region: the D.O Cava is bigger than you think! An intro to the D.O Penedes.

(03:42) Torello: A family dynasty dating back to 1395. How cava is made! In case you want to try for yourself.

(06:49) Marketing: A high end cava, 90% of which never leaves Spain. In Cataluña you don’t need a special reason to drink cava!

(09:26) Tasting notes: We tried two cavas: Torelló Brut Special Edition Reserva. Torelló Finca Can Martí Gran Reserva.

(13:34) The magic happens in the bottle (Large and Small)

(14:56) Question of the day: What can cava producers do to encourage you to think of cava as an everyday wine and not just for special occasions?
