Its freshness and effervescence provide a contrast to autumn dishes, balancing intense flavors and richer textures. A good cava doesn’t dominate — it accompanies. It cleanses the palate and enhances every nuance.
Castell d’Or was recognized at the 2025 Vinari Awards with two Grand Golds: one for its Cava Brut (DO Cava) and another for its Trepat Red Wine (DO Conca de Barberà), in addition to several Silver Medals.
This recognition highlights the quality of our wines and cavas, and their deep connection to the land that gives them life.
The Castell d’Or Cava Brut, honored with the top award, is a balanced, fresh, and elegant cava — capable of accompanying a wide range of flavors.
And although the focus of this article is cava, the award for our Castell d’Or Trepat Red Wine (DO Conca de Barberà) reinforces our commitment to diversity and the identity of our territory.
Sautéed mushrooms with garlic and parsley find their perfect match in Castell d’Or Cava Brut.
Its fine bubbles and refreshing acidity bring balance and cleanse the earthy sensation of the fungi. Ideal with saffron milk caps or yellowfoot chanterelles — even better with a touch of local extra virgin olive oil.
Pumpkin cream with ginger and nutmeg pairs beautifully with Castell d’Or Cava Brut Nature, Silver Medal at the 2025 Vinari Awards.

This pairing is a sure bet for a light yet characterful autumn starter, where the cava adds brightness and depth to every bite.
Autumn gifts us vegetables full of flavor — roasted eggplants, zucchinis, carrots, or sweet potatoes.
Castell d’Or Organic Brut Cava enhances the sweet, smoky notes of the roasted vegetables.
It’s an excellent choice: its natural freshness and persistent bubbles bring balance, making the pairing lively and harmonious — a 100% plant-based, Mediterranean proposal.
Aged cheeses and nuts pair wonderfully with Castell d’Or Cava Brut, whose fine acidity enhances the cheese’s intensity and keeps the palate wanting more.
Alternatively, an equally successful pairing is with Castell d’Or Trepat Young Red Wine, Grand Gold Medal winner, made from the native Trepat grape.
This wine offers great freshness, aromas of red fruits, and a light touch of spice, bringing balance and vibrancy to the combination while highlighting the strength of the aged cheeses and the toasted sweetness of the nuts.
Autumn pairings with cava are more than a culinary experience — they’re a celebration of the essence of our land.
Every glass of Castell d’Or reflects collective effort, the vineyard, and a passion for detail.
