WineDiva's Review

Muscular, balanced, supple .
Chocalan's flagship wine is Maipo blend dominated by Cabernet Franc (75%) along with Merlot, Cab Sauv and Petit Verdot.
Sweet mashed cherries and salted licorice, mint, red currents, saddle leather and chocolate aromas lead to a supple palate entry that is muscular and still quite tightly wound. Chocolate dusted fruit and toasted brown spice flavours lead the charge. The tannins are chalky, the finish reserved but the balance is all in check.
Definitely give this wine some time to develop; a couple years or longer.
*Not currently available in BC.
