To think Prosecco is better than Cava?

[Springtime45]

I know nothing about wine but want to offer my weekending AirBNB guests some fizz and brownies as a welcome gesture.

What do you think?

YABU- Cava is better

YANBU- Prosecco is better

I'll offer orange juice to non-drinkers.

Cava wipes the floor with Prosecco. I keep waiting for cava to overthrow the pretender to its affordable fizz throne but instead Freixenet have produced a prosecco, presumably reasoning that if you can’t beat them, join them.

there are some good proseccos. Very few. You have to pay at least £12 a bottle. Everything else is awful syrupy fizz made in a concrete tank. I was at a wedding recently where they chose the wrong Prosecco and it reminded me of bloody Pomagne.

I'd choose Cava over Prosecco as it is produced via the Méthode Champenoise whereas Prosecco is produced in tanks.

Crémant is better than both, imo.

Champagne is best 🥂

You won’t get much change from £40 for a bottle of Nyetimber and I’m not sure that the OP is looking to spend that much! It is delicious though.

I prefer cava, but Brut cava, I can´t stand cheap sweet sickly wines.

If I was your Aibnb guest I would be enormously happy with and grateful for either!

Sainsburys do a lovely bottle of Cremant de Bourgogne for £10! That would be my choice.

I prefer Prosecco but I would be chuffed with either. I love a freebie.

Prosecco is vile

Cava is much nicer, much less added sugar and a better process if manufacture! Xx

Prosecco - Cava gives me a headache

Crémant all the way...

Well... clearly I have some thoughts...

In all seriousness I've had some lovely prosecco - in Italy.

If you're looking at spending £6 here in a supermarket you will get a vastly superior sparkling wine buying cremant or cava at that price than you will a supermarket prosecco IMO.

Supermarket prosecco in this country is generally awful.

Cava

I have an AirBnB and I have left my guests local wine from Chardonnay to Syrah to bubbles and also the cheaper imported stuff when I'm not not hugely flush

We live in a wine area so I suspect it's different but all of them have just loved the fact we've left something for them!

I wouldn't worry about it too much tbh. A decent Italian brand Prosecco is going to to be better than Friexenet Cava as is a Cremant. Most people won't notice other than "FREE BUBBLES!"

Personally I prefer Cava but Prosecco is more popular so I might offer that, in your situation.

I love either but don't like cremant. Also champagne is wasted on me though..
