Product Notes

Domaine Carneros Le Rêve Blanc de Blancs Brut is a sophisticated Californian sparkling wine, originating from the esteemed Domaine Carneros estate. The epitome of elegance, this Brut embodies rich and complex aromas of ripe orchard fruits, toasted almonds, and fresh brioche. The palate reveals expressive flavours of citrus, pear, and touch of honey with a remarkable creamy texture. The wine displays a precise, crisp finish and impressive longevity, ensuring an unforgettable tasting experience. Crafted with 100% Chardonnay grapes, Le Rêve Blanc de Blancs is considered the pinnacle of the winery's range, making it a hallmark of sparkling excellence.

Tasting Notes

Only the finest selection of fruit is used and the finished wine is left to age in bottle for 6 years, allowing complex flavours to develop. Wonderfully intense with a rich palate of poached pear, hazelnuts and cinnamon giving way to a long creamy finish.
