An unusual but delicious wine of 100% Cabernet Franc. Viña Chocalán Reserva is brooding deep-red with elegant aromas of dried fruit, black cherry and cassis, and on the palate, round dark fruit, oak and spice leading to a smooth, long and mouth-coating tannic finish. Since its first vintage in 2001, the young winery has quickly scaled the heights to become one of Chile's top producers; Viña Chocalán offers a wide range of high quality affordable wines.

Allow 20 minutes for breathing and serve at 16 - 17℃; this Cabernet Franc matches well with BBQ meats or game stews; also creates synergy with Cantonese style dried sausages.

13 months in French and American oak.

Enjoy now or over the 3 - 4 years.
