What Cavas pair with meat?

To pair cava is not to settle for a toast, it is to dedicate the time that the bottle deserves, the tradition and its elaboration together with a meal that is up to par. It is, in other words, aiming for the perfect combination of quality.

Highlight the harmony that cava presents with poultry and white meats, as well as being an excellent companion to lamb, stews, carpaccios and red meats. So let’s start busting myths.

Pairing meat with different types of cava

To pair cava with meat or with any type of dish, its type must be taken into account, which is marked by two aspects: the dosage, which is the degree of sweetness that the cava has (from raw to sweet) and aging, which consists of the time in which the cava liquid rests in the bottle (from Cava de Guarda to Cava de Guarda Superior, where we find the Reserva and Gran Reserva).

Each type of cava will allow you to pair it with different foods and occasions.

Cavas that pair with red meat

For red meats, roasts, game or highly seasoned and laborious dishes, without a doubt, a Brut Nature and Gran Reserva cava, such as Segura Viudas Brut Vintage Gran Reserva, with more body and breadth to accompany this type of wine. more consistent menus.

Cavas that pair with white meat

We recommend a cava from Guarda, that is to say young, and Brut or Brut Reserva, fruity, with a point of stimulating and fresh acidity, such as our Segura Viudas Brut Reserva.
