A severe drought over the past three years has significantly impacted cava production, leading to a 12.28% decrease in global shipments during the first three quarters of 2024 compared to the previous year. This is due to a decrease in grape production, with the largest decline seen in the German market. Despite these challenges, the domestic market experienced only a 3.67% decrease. To mitigate the reduction in harvests, Freixenet has introduced Premium Sparkling Wines outside the DO Cava for the DACH markets.

By 2025, all Guarda Superior cavas will be 100% organic.
