Coquelicot
Coquelicot produces wines from California's Central Coast, a region defined by maritime influence and diverse microclimates that shape fruit expression across varied terroirs. The winery's Chenin Blanc demonstrates the varietal's capacity for balance and complexity in this coastal setting, earning recognition from Wine Enthusiast. Its Reserve Cabernet Franc and the Bordeaux-blend Mon Petit Chou—a composition of Petit Verdot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot—reflect a commitment to both single-varietal focus and thoughtful blending. The Central Coast's cool nights and warm days create conditions suited to these grapes, allowing for ripe fruit character tempered by natural acidity and structure.
