Vitrum Mediterraneo : A Bold Mediterranean Red Blend from Chile

Viña Chocalán's Vitrum Mediterráneo 2021 is an elegant red blend from Chile’s Maipo Valley, featuring a carefully curated mix of Mediterranean grape varieties, primarily 70% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and 5% Viognier. This blend offers a rich and complex profile with bold aromas of blackberries, violet, and a hint of minerality. On the palate, it reveals juicy red fruit, peppery spice, plum compote, and blueberry, delivering both freshness and density. The tiny addition of Viognier adds a floral edge, enhancing the wine's balance and elegance​.

Crafted from grapes grown in the coastal region of the Maipo Valley, the vineyards benefit from granitic clay and loam soils. Each variety is harvested and fermented separately, maximizing their individual characteristics before being expertly blended. The wine is aged in French oak barrels to impart depth and complexity, resulting in a full-bodied red with a lingering cedar and fruit finish​.

Viña Chocalán, a family-owned winery established in 1998, is renowned for its dedication to producing wines that reflect the unique terroir of their vineyards. The Vitrum Mediterráneo 2021 has garnered critical acclaim, scoring 92 points from James Suckling, and 93 points from Decanter​. This versatile blend pairs exceptionally well with a variety of dishes, including veal chops, lamb kebabs, and grilled beef steaks.
