Description
Kaiken Clásico Mendoza Malbec is a vibrant expression of Malbec from the Agrelo zone in Mendoza, planted at 950 metres above sea level on silt, clay, and sand soils interspersed with stones from Andean erosion. Hand-harvested grapes are carefully selected and partially matured in French oak, resulting in a fruit-forward Malbec with soft, silky tannins and a fresh, expressive character.
Meet the producer
Kaiken draws inspiration from the wild geese of Patagonia that traverse the Andes, just as the Montes team crossed the mountains to establish vineyards in Mendoza. Founded to craft premium Malbecs and Cabernet Sauvignons, Kaiken combines fruit from its own vineyards (70%) with carefully controlled sites (30%), focusing on balance, ripeness, and expressive varietal character.
Production
Grapes are hand-picked into 300 kg batches and undergo meticulous sorting at the winery. Fermentation occurs in small tanks, with approximately 20 days of maceration to extract colour, aroma, and structure. Around 40% of the wine is aged for six months in French oak barrels before blending, ensuring a harmonious balance of fresh fruit and oak integration.
Tasting notes
Deep purple in colour, the nose reveals pronounced plum and blackberry aromas complemented by black pepper and clove. The palate is fresh and expressive, with soft, ripe tannins and a balanced, approachable structure.
Food match
Pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and hearty pasta dishes.
