Saturday night is cava night!

Well Simon and I have some serious drinking to do tonight - we are doing a final taste test on Cava, ready to buy enough fizz for the wedding! Cava is a delicious sparkling Spanish wine made using a "method Champenoise" and (unlike Champagne) doesn't give me a hangover!!! Well unless you drink 3 bottles - which is exactly what we are planning to do!

So the three wines we are tasting are -

Freixnet Cordon Negro

Tesco's Finest 2000 Vintage Cava

Hardy's Pinot Noir Chardonnay


Yes, I agree the third choice is not really a Cava - but what the hell, loved it last time we tasted it!! So with shouts of "courage mon brave" echoing ...... off I go!
