SPAIN | CAVA | JUVÉ & CAMPS



ABOUT JUVÉ & CAMPS
Juvé & Camps is a historic, family-owned sparkling wine house from Sant Sadurní d’Anoia in Catalonia, the heartland of Cava production near Barcelona. Although the family’s roots as winegrowers go back to the late 18th century, the first sparkling wines under the Juvé name were released in 1921 by Joan Juvé Baqués and his wife, Teresa Camps. Over the following decades, successive generations expanded vineyard holdings, modernized the cellars, and helped position the estate as one of Spain’s benchmark producers of Cava.
The winery is especially known for its focus on long-aged Gran Reserva Cavas, such as Gran Juvé & Camps (first produced in 1972) and Reserva de la Família, which began in 1976 as a private family-only cuvée before becoming one of the most recognized Brut Nature Cavas worldwide. These wines typically spend several years aging on lees, which contributes to their fine mousse, brioche-like complexity, and ability to develop in bottle.
In recent years, the estate has emphasized organic viticulture and sustainability, converting all of its substantial vineyard holdings to certified organic farming and becoming one of the largest organic estates in Spain. Grapes are hand-harvested from estate vineyards, and the winemaking philosophy combines modern technology with an avowedly artisanal approach, aiming to let site and vintage character show through in each cuvée. With production numbering in the millions of bottles yet a reputation for quality and precision, Juvé y Camps is often cited as a leader in the Gran Reserva Cava category and a key reference point for Spanish sparkling wine globally.

ABOUT CAVA
While Cava can be made in several regions throughout Spain, 95% is made with grapes from the limestone soils of Penedés D.O. (45 minutes southwest of Barcelona) with vines planted as high up as 2,800 feet. Cava grapes at those altitudes can be intensely tart, more akin to the structure of Champagne. Unlike other sparkling wines like Prosecco, Cava is always produced using the Champenois Method, with the secondary fermentation taking place inside the bottle.
