"Pan con Tomate is a fantastic recipe to enjoy with your friends and family. It's simple, quick and delicious. When working with fresh ingredients, dishes can be simple and still have a lot of punch. The acidity of the fresh tomatoes matches well with Cava's crisp acidity and bready character helping to bring out its fruit character. This is the perfect pairing for Aperitivo time!" – Raul Diaz
