2025 Rococo Chenin Blanc “Own Rooted”, Central Coast
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 91+ Points
The aromas of this already satisfying Chenin Blanc are zesty yet easy-going and they focus on poached pear, baked apple and citrus notes. It proves richer and slightly denser on the palate, where the flavors are more suggestive of pear-apple chutney as hints of candied and spiced fruit join in with airing. Gently lingering and very tasty already, this tasty bottling should become ever more flavorful and impressive over the next six months or so (the above notes were written just one week after the wine was bottled). 650 cases produced.
