Avinyo Cava

Cava may be Spain's national sparkler but finding a good one in the U.S. is really tough to do. Thankfully Tinto Fino, the excellent wine shop devoted exclusively to Spanish wine, has a good one - Avinyo Brut Reserva from Cataluna. This cava ($21) is fresh and crisp with a nice minerality. It's made from the first press of organic macabeo, parellada and xarel-lo grapes and is dry with just a hint of sweetness.

If you haven't been to Tinto Fino (85 First Ave, web), it's worth a stop when you're in the East Village. Their selection of wines is impressive.
