In Episode 24 of Thanks! It's Vintage, co-hosts Andrew and Lydia take a hard look behind the label of Spain’s most famous sparkling wine to discuss the mounting economic crisis facing the Cava industry. While consumers have long celebrated Cava as an affordable, high-quality alternative to Champagne, the reality on the ground in Penedès tells a much darker story. The duo breaks down the core forces driving the storm: severe overproduction, a dramatic collapse in grape prices that has left generational vine growers struggling to survive, and the tension between massive industrial production houses and small-batch quality producers. Together, Andrew and Lydia explore how rock-bottom grape pricing squeezes local farming communities, fuels grower strikes, and has driven a growing movement of premium winemakers to walk away from the Cava DO entirely in favor of alternative designations like Corpinnat. Grab a glass and join the conversation as the hosts pull back the curtain on the delicate economics of sparkling wine and discuss what this crisis means for the future of Spanish bubbles—and the bottles on your local wine shop shelf.
