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 Pierrick Laroche

Chablis (Maligny + Courgis, Burgundy)

Pierrick Laroche runs Domaine des HΓ’tes at Maligny, in the north-west corner of Chablis. His father built the estate up from the 1970s, gradually gaining planting rights and adding parcels, while selling the fruit to La Chablisienne. Pierrick made the first vintage under his own name in 2010, to immediate acclaim.

He took a degree in oenology at Beaune and then travelled, taking internships around the wine world before coming home to farm the family vineyards himself. The estate now runs to 33 hectares: twelve of Petit Chablis, twelve of Chablis, a hectare of Chablis Les ChΓ’tillons, and premier cru holdings in Butteaux and Fourchaume L'Homme Mort, with Beauroy, Vau de Vey and Grand Cru Bougros bottled under a small nΓ©goce operation he began in 2016.

The cellars are cut into the hillside in the village and built over several levels, so most of the work is done by gravity. Vinification is classic Chablis: malolactic for everything and ageing in stainless steel, with a small portion of the premier and grand cru wines raised in used barrels and blended back before bottling. His oldest plot is Les ChΓ’tillons, planted in the early 1970s behind the hill of Grand Crus, and it gets a touch of barrel too. Farming is sustainable, with grass between the rows controlled by ploughing. About 8,000 dozen a year.
