Domaine Carneros Le Rêve Blanc de Blancs Sparkling Wine 2016

A Dream in Every Bubble

French for “The Dream,” Le Rêve is Domaine Carneros’ most luxurious tête de cuvée—crafted exclusively from 100% estate-grown Chardonnay and aged meticulously to embody the artistry of méthode traditionnelle. Produced only in select vintages, this Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine is a masterclass in finesse, elegance, and aging potential.

Hand-harvested from the estate’s highest-caliber vineyard blocks in California’s Carneros AVA, Le Rêve spends over six years on the lees, developing extraordinary depth, creamy texture, and refined minerality. It is the ultimate expression of the house’s dedication to traditional Champagne-inspired winemaking on American soil.

Tasting Experience

Appearance: Pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles that shimmer in the glass.

Aroma: Complex layers of white flowers, honeysuckle, and Meyer lemon, supported by hints of brioche, crème brûlée, and toasted hazelnuts.

Palate: Rich and elegant, yet remarkably fresh. Flavors of poached pear, lemon meringue, golden apple, and almond pastry evolve on the tongue, underpinned by a silky mousse and mineral precision.

Finish: Long and graceful, with a lingering note of citrus zest and creamy vanilla.
