Located on a stretch of pristine land between the Andes Mountains and Costal Mountain Range, Viña Chocalán has 340 hectares of land benefiting from a unique microclimate in the Maipo Valley.
Located just 35 km in a straight line from the Pacific Ocean, with cool evenings, the sea breeze creates a contrast between day and night, allowing for a slow ripening of the fruit.
The vineyard is frost free and 30% of the vines are planted on hillsides with Northwest sun exposure. Shaped as an amphitheater, plantations have different exposures to the sun for 300 days a year.
The slopes have well-drained limestone soils Furthermore, this strong maritime influence -in addition to the cool climate condition influenced by the Maipo River which is located 1 km from the estate-, allows this terroir to produce high quality red wines, with intense colors, freshness, and a natural acidity.
The white wines from Maipo used for our Reserve range are planted near the river using clonal material that allows maximum varietal expression, as well as a careful and proper management of the vineyard for harvest.
