Our Estate Brut is a small cuvée comprised only of grapes grown in our own vineyards. In 2009 we made our first prototype of this cuvée and we were so pleased with the results that we committed to produce it on an ongoing basis exclusively for our Wine Club members and winery guests.

Rosé wines are often believed to be made only from Pinot Noir, but the best, including ours, have Chardonnay added for structure. In creating our Rosé we worked to create a wine of great balance while emphasizing fruity and floral characteristics to a greater extent than in our Brut or Le Rêve.

Before a sparkling wine earns the right to feature its vintage on the label, it must be aged in the bottle for three years. Our Late Disgorged Brut goes well beyond that strict requirement with a total of six years aging sur lie en bouteille - on the lees, in the bottle. The result is an enhanced, enriched edition of our acclaimed Domaine Carneros Brut Cuvée.

The beauty of our methóde traditionnelle wines is that the longer they age the more harmonious and elegant they become. This Rosé from 2013 vintage is labeled as LATE DISGORGED because it is held back for an additional two years for a total of five years resting on the lees (aka “sur lie”).

Ultra Brut is a rare style of sparkling wine that is rarely produced. Very dry and brisk, it is a contemplative wine that appeals to the true aficionado. Hailing from the stellar 2014 vintage, this latest expression includes intriguing aromas of yuzu fruit, vanilla bean, lime, and a hint of walnut. 

Our glamorous tête de cuvée rosé makes a brief appearance each holiday season, a masterful expression of vintage composed of our finest blocks of estate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Only made in limited quantities, the Le Rêve Rosé is reserved for Club members and a few clients who seek it out.

Verméil (vehr-MAY) is a Demi-Sec, or lightly sweet sparkling wine. Modern tastes have driven most fine sparkling wines to the dry side; however, an extra touch of dosage makes for a delightful experience.

Le Rêve is a highly respected tête de cuvée - our winery’s finest Sparkling wine and frequently named America’s Best Sparkling. French for “the dream,” Le Rêve is crafted from 100% estate-grown Chardonnay, making it a pure expression of Domaine Carneros. 

Made from 100% Pinot Noir and pale golden in appearance. Two decades ago we created our first Blanc de Noir - a white sparkling wine made from black Pinot Noir grapes. We made very few cases, but those who tasted it were bewitched...
