About Caraccioli Cellars

Caraccioli Cellars is a family-run winery best known for making some of the finest sparkling wine in the country. Started by the Caraccioli family in 2006 and grown from their 124-acre Escolle Vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands, the wines were shaped by the late Michel Salgues, the renowned winemaker formerly of Roederer Estate. The vintage, traditional-method Brut Cuvee and Brut Rose, aged nearly four years on the yeast, have won top international honors, alongside elegant still Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

The tasting room sits in the heart of walkable Carmel-by-the-Sea, one of many along the town's charming streets, in a cozy, contemporary space with a genuinely welcoming feel. Because production is small and largely sold on-site and to Michelin-starred local restaurants, a stop here is a rare chance to taste world-class California bubbles close to the source.

Tom Caraccioli, Tom Caraccioli, whose personal conviction that the Santa Lucia Highlands' high elevation, dramatic diurnal temperature swings, and Pacific wind-channeled cool growing conditions produced Chardonnay and Pinot Noir base wines of ideal natural acidity and mineral structure for California's most serious méthode champenoise sparkling wine production, established the Carmel-by-the-Sea tasting room in 2006 as the most centrally village-located and most accessible luxury sparkling wine encounter in Monterey County wine country.

The Dolores StreetThe Dolores Street and 7th Avenue tasting room location, in the heart of the most charming and most gallery-and-boutique-dense downtown village in California, steps from the famous Carmel Beach and the white stone buildings that make Carmel-by-the-Sea one of the most photographed coastal villages in the United States, provides the most elegantly Carmel-village-atmosphere-embedded and most walkably-central-to-Carmel-tourist-district sparkling wine appointment in California coastal wine country.
