Difference between cava Brut y Brut Nature 

MAXIMILIANO BAO / sumiller There have always been many doubts about the different Cavas, and the differences to classify them. As we all form part of the Consum Winery, we wanted to compile the most frequent questions, false rumours, and doubts to answer them one by one and achieve a bit more expertise in this world that we like so much. Take note and enjoy! ... How does a Brut Cava differ from a Brut Nature Cava? The difference between a Brut Cava and a Brut Nature Cava is that no sugar can be added to the latter, and that it can contain a maximum of 3 grams per litre - and this is despite the general belief that a Brut Nature Cava never has any sugar - whereas a Brut Cava can have up to 12 g/l. ... What is done to make a Cava more or less dry? This is thanks to the so-called "expedition liqueur", which is a combination of wine, sugar, and each winery’s secret ingredient, that can be added - except for Brut Nature - just before the final capping. Depending on the sugar that is added, the Cava will be sweeter, and the label will say Extra Dry, Dry, Semi Dry or Sweet, if it contains more than 50 grams of sugar per litre.
