What it tastes like.

90% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay. Produced only in the very best years from vines averaging 35 years age. Aged 6 years on lees and finished with a dosage of 8g/l.
”Candied apricot, dried flowers, chamomile and spice give the 2014 Brut Grand Millésime a real sense of exoticism that is impossible to miss. Ample and creamy, the 2014 possesses terrific resonance and plenty of depth, all in a style that can be enjoyed with minimal, if any, cellaring. Disgorged: July, 2019.” 92 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2020.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Champagne Paul Bara

Champagne

The Bara family records in Bouzy and the surrounding villages of Bisseuil, Oiry and Chouilly date back to the 1600s. Auguste François Bara arrived in Bouzy in 1833 to work as a cooper, married into a vine-owning family, and the line has farmed Bouzy ever since. Paul Bara — Chantale's father — was the first of the line to bottle and sell Champagne under the family name from the 1950s.
