It's a very smooth wine with a strong fruit character. The balanced acidity completes the picture. A picture from Argentina.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Fruity Chardonnay grapes from Kaiken Estate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nOne of Chile's most famous winemakers, Aurelio Montes, decided to establish Kaiken Estate in 2002. The name refers to a species of goose native to Patagonia, which annually migrates across the Andes Mountains from Chile to Argentina. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are planted in Agrelo, Lujan de Cuyo. The vineyards for this Malbec are located 40 kilometers south of Mendoza and at an altitude of 950 meters above sea level. The climate is windy and semi-arid. Cold winters alternate with warm summers. The temperature differences between day and night can be significant, but this is very beneficial for the ripening process. The loamy soil produces fruity grapes with soft tannins.\n\n\n \nThe Chardonnay grapes are harvested entirely by hand around February and brought to the winery, where they undergo manual selection. After sorting, the grapes undergo 20 days of fermentation in concrete tanks with selected yeasts. Before being released, the wine is aged for another month in the bottle. A conscious decision was made not to age in oak to preserve the Chardonnay's freshness.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Enjoy this Argentinian Chardonnay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n A vibrant, yellow Chardonnay emerges from the glass. The aroma evokes tropical fruit with pineapple and mango, complemented by fresh citrus notes. The palate offers a soft and elegant mouthfeel, beautifully balanced between fruity notes and delicate acidity. The finish is inviting with a hint of lemon zest.","brand":"DGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775844978767,"sku":"13799","price":9.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/kaiken-estate-chardonnay_13799.webp?v=1771589270"},{"product_id":"kaiken-ultra-chardonnay","title":"Kaiken Ultra Chardonnay","description":"The Ultra Chardonnay has good structure, with plenty of complexity and length.

Kaiken Estate is uniquely positioned to capture the beautiful terroir in their quality wines.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Long-term wood aging for Kaiken Ultra Chardonnay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n The Argentinian winery Kaiken was founded in 2002 by winemaker Aurelio Montes. They have three vineyards in Mendoza and one in Salta. These vineyards vary greatly in altitude and weather conditions, allowing Kaiken to cultivate a variety of grape varieties and produce fine, high-quality wines.\n\n\n \nThe Altamira vineyard lies at an altitude of no less than 1200 meters above sea level. Here, the climate is characterized by very cold nights and warm days, where the cool nighttime tempers the high daytime temperatures. The soils consist of limestone, sand, and stone, resulting in fresh and fruity grapes with unique characteristics. At peak ripeness, the grapes are harvested entirely by hand and brought to the winery. Here, a rigorous selection process takes place, leaving only the very best grapes. This is followed by 21 days of alcoholic fermentation at a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius. Sixty-five percent of the wine is fermented in concrete tanks, while the remaining 35 percent is fermented in new barrels. The wine then rests for approximately 12 months, after which it is filtered and bottled. The wine then rests in the bottle for another two months before we can enjoy this Ultra Chardonnay.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Enjoy the special taste experience of Ultra Chardonnay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nBut it's more than worth the wait.

They have three vineyards in Mendoza and one in Salta. These vineyards vary greatly in altitude and weather conditions, allowing Kaiken to cultivate a variety of grape varieties and produce beautiful, high-quality wines. The name Kaiken comes from the caiquen, a wild goose that crosses the Andes from Chile to Argentina. Montes often made the same flight, and because he regularly saw the geese flying back and forth, the name for the winery was quickly born.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested entirely by hand during the first two weeks of February. They are then transported in 10-kilo boxes to the winery. Here, the grapes are hand-selected before the vinification process begins. The grapes are pressed immediately, and fermentation with selected yeasts follows. The wine is bottle-fermented for 30 days and then aged with yeast for two years. This gives this Sparkling Brut more structure and complexity. The wine is then clarified and cold-stabilized before being bottled.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e An elegant Sparkling Brut with the necessary spice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nKaiken's Sparkling Brut has a clear color with golden hues and elegant bubbles in the glass.
