Up to three candidates have applied so far (candidacies can be submitted until June 10) to preside over the DO Cava, succeeding Javier Pagés who has completed two terms. Once the 12 members of the new board are elected following yesterday’s elections, the presidency is expected to be decided on June 11. Marta Vidal made the announcement this morning, Friday, at the headquarters of the sector’s employers’ association in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, the Associació d’Elaboradors de Cava (Aecava), and later presented it to the staff of her cellars based in Vilobí del Penedès and to her grape suppliers. If she obtains enough votes, she will become the first woman to preside over the DO Cava since its founding in 1972.
