Profile & Story
La Caravelle Champagne was founded in 1997 by Rita and Andre Jammet, former proprietors of the celebrated French restaurant La Caravelle in New York City, continuing the old French tradition of a restaurateur's own proprietary Champagne. The cuvees are elaborated in Epernay by Champagne De Castellane. The Brut Rose starts from the same base as the house's Cuvee Nina with 9% still Pinot Noir blended in, then aged three years on the lees alongside reserve wines kept in solera.
Tasting Notes
A beautiful, delicate salmon pink color with fine, generous bubbles. The bouquet shows strawberry marmalade, subtle and elegant; the palate is fleshy with cherry and almond notes, elegant and round, with good freshness.
Pairing Recommendation
Ideal for aperitif, and versatile enough for an entire menu of salmon, shellfish, meats, red berries and desserts.
