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 Santa Sofia

Veneto

Santa Sofia operates from a sixteenth-century Palladian villa at Pedemonte, in the Valpolicella Classico zone north of Verona. The estate's vineyards spread across the surrounding hills of the Negrar, San Pietro in Cariano and Sant'Ambrogio communes β€” the heart of Valpolicella Classico.

The portfolio runs the full Valpolicella range: Valpolicella Classico, Valpolicella Ripasso, and Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG. Whites cover Soave Classico from estate vineyards in the neighbouring Soave Classico zone.
