Rococo Wines
Producing & Advocating for Old Vine Chenin Blanc on the Central Coast of California. Find us at Willow Creek Wine Co.
Frost is by far the most challenging environmental factor we experience on the farm.
Each year in the spring, our vines push out new growth around mid-March. But we hang out in “frost season” until early May.
It is not uncommon for parts of our vineyard to experience frost events during this period.
Sometimes they are mild and have little effect on the fruit’s quality and quantity. Sometimes they are widespread and have a significant impact on the clusters and the young shoot’s growth pattern for the season.
We have a few weeks of frost season left, but a few nights ago we experienced a light frost event that will invariably impact the lower section of our Chenin Blanc block.

After a continuous storm a few weeks ago, the soils are saturated and our seasonal creek is flowing.
Frogs are singing at night and soon we will welcome tadpoles, egrets, ducks, and other wildlife.
This could come at a better time. We just finished pruning and tying down the cane-pruned vines, and now we are seeing bud swell in a few varieties.
The mornings have been in the high 40’s (instead of the low 30’s they were a few weeks ago) and morning walks with the dogs are perfect. 🐶

International White Wine Festival

Thank you for welcoming me to your wonderful community to pour my Rococo wines at the Chenin Blanc table, along with Leo Steen and Jackson Family Wines.
The wines are delicious and full of energy, and the tight knit community is really special. It was well worth the trek and I look forward to visiting again. And eating at Jumbo’s.

Chenins are back in the house!
2025 was an incredible growing vintage surrounded by awesome people and we think we made some pretty good wines. Excited to release these soon.

📣 Public Service Announcement 📣
Chenin Blanc is one of the most ageable white wine varieties!
If you’ve been holding on to some of the Rococo Chenins, the cooler weather ahead might be the best time of the year to pop them open and enjoy.
In these videos I give my favorite qualities of aged Chenin, and what to look for in an ageable white wine.
We have been featuring a handful of older Chenins on our White Wine Flight in the Willow Creek tasting room. Visit us and taste for yourself.
Happy sipping 🥂

Our LAST Chenin pick of 2025 - Los Alamos Vineyard in Santa Barbara County.
This vineyard always likes to hang out on the vines for longer than other sites, sitting around lower brix but developing lots of flavor. Sometimes we find pockets of noble rot at this site which are 👩🍳 😘

✨ Vista Verde Chenin is here! ✨
An incredible site to work with, farmed by Miguel Alvarado and the Williams Selyem group. The fruit looks lovely, and always presses out with a beautiful lime green color from its natural acidity. Can’t wait to see what the 2025 vintage imparts on this wine.

The weather has been WEIRD this September. Cool and cloudy most days with a little bit of rain. A big contrast from the late summer heat waves we typically experience.
But so far the fruit has been fantastic. Great flavor, good yield, solid chemistry. I don’t think this year will be without its challenges, but I think we will make some very good wines 🥂
This is our last pick from Shell Creek @avenalesranch this year. Vista Verde is close behind, and then Los Alamos!

We picked our first ever Estate Chenin Blanc this morning! 1.9 tons with perfect flavor and great chemistry. We’re so exited to get to know our home vineyard through the lens of our favorite white grape ✨
