Vintage Report

The 2021 vintage in Argentina was rated with an excellent score of 92 points by Robert Parker. The vintage was characterized by an irregular course but yielded wines of a very high standard.

The finest of Mendoza's terroir captured in a glass. This delightful blend of Malbec, Bonarda, and Petit Verdot is a fruity wine with great elegance and depth. The winemakers at Kaiken know exactly what the grapes need and meticulously follow the vinification process. Nothing is left to chance, and that's reflected in this beautiful Argentinian wine.

Quality wine from Kaiken

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 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. The Malbec, Bonarda, and Petit Verdor grapes are grown in Los Chacayes vineyards in the Uco Valley. At an altitude of approximately 1250 meters above sea level, the grapes enjoy the best climate, with warm days alternating with cool nights. The grapes ripen evenly and are only harvested by hand at peak ripeness. After a careful vinification process, the wine is aged for several months before release.

The fruity notes of Kaiken Terroir Series MALBEC Bonarda Petit Verdot

The grapes are planted in slightly higher-elevation vineyards, giving this wine a touch more elegance and depth. The aroma boasts fruity notes with a predominant plum, complemented by spices. On the palate, the warm notes of the Malbec are clearly evident, supported by the fruity notes of the Petit Verdot and the smooth flavor of the Bonarda. A superb blend that showcases the best of the Mendoza terroir.
