I think I've isolated the error to the \printbibliography command, but it's very weird.

Uncommenting it in the minimal code example above allows me to compile this fine, but as I start adding in text and tables to the minimal example then I recreate the error reported above. Can anyone clarify what is going on here?
Note: I was using biblatex (not biblatex-chicago) and it was compiling nicely.

Referred bibliographic entry is as follows:

Code: Select all

I should say: clicking through the errors compiles a file that looks good, but I'd like to clarify this error.

Your example works for me, the error must be somewwhere else. Please have a look at Creating a LaTeX Minimal Example.

Also, you should drop the option for graphicx.
