The Kaiken winery was founded in 2002 as the sister winery of Montes on the
other side of the Andes and has since developed its own identity and earned an
excellent international reputation. Under the dynamic and sustainable leadership
of Aurelio Montes Junior, who brings a great deal of energy and experimentation,
Kaiken stands for excellent vinification in the high altitudes of the Andes. The
name "Kaiken" comes from the Mapuche Indians and refers to the Patagonian wild
goose that regularly crosses the Andes mountains between Chile and Argentina.
Inspired by this journey, Montes founded the Kaiken winery in Argentina to
produce exceptional wines.

Kaiken Malbec Estate is an outstanding example of the expressiveness of the
grape variety on the unique terroir of Mendoza. This elegant and seductive wine
boasts rich fruit aromas, a diverse palette of flavors and just the right amount
of influence from 6 months of aging in French oak barrels. The vines for this
exquisite red wine thrive on nutrient-rich clay soil, which contributes to the
development of its complex and balanced flavor structure. With a storage
potential of 4-5 years and a natural cork stopper, the Malbec Estate offers an
authentic wine experience that will delight both connoisseurs and gourmets
alike.
