Character

This fruity, rich and well-balanced wine of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is deep red with occasional purple reflections. On the nose is a highly intense and complex bouquet of cherry, plum and blackberry, along with a little dried fruit, notes of chocolate and coffee and just a hint of liquorice. On the palate, the harmonious interplay between these aromas is again apparent, and it has a long-lasting finish.

Region

Mendoza

More than 300 years ago, Jesuit monks discovered the viticultural advantages of Mendozas. Today, the province is Argentina’s most important and largest winegrowing region, providing ideal conditions for quality winegrowing: a dry climate, substantial differences in day-time and night-time temperatures, and a location of the vineyards at around 1000 m a.s.l. The Andes glaciers provide abundant water which transforms the rocky, limestone and sandy terrains into the perfect soil for untreated grapes to thrive on.


Producer/Brand

Kaiken

The name Kaiken dates back to the Patagonian wild goose, which was called Kaiken by the native American Mapuche tribe. As dynamic, wild and free as their name-giver, the exclusive wines of the Mendoza-based establishment are by nature imbued with an honest character, a big personality, elegance and expression. Aurelio Montes, a pioneer of carefully prepared wines in Argentina, received a series of prestigious awards for his wines as well as his lifetime achievement. Together with his son Aurelio junior, he presses top quality wines from vines more than 100 years old: Kaiken has been receiving highest ratings since the very first vintage.
