The Kaiken winery was founded in 2002 as a sister estate to 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 a spirit of experimentation to the business, Kaiken is synonymous with excellent winemaking in the high altitudes of the Andes. The name ‘Kaiken’ originates from the Mapuche people and refers to the Patagonian wild goose, which regularly crosses the Andes between Chile and Argentina. Inspired by this journey, Montes founded the Kaiken winery in Argentina to produce exceptional wines there.

Kaiken Ultra Malbec is an outstanding single-varietal red wine from Argentina. The finest grapes are carefully harvested by hand, rigorously sorted and gently fermented on the skins. After fermentation, the wine is aged for twelve months in French oak barrels, followed by a further six months of bottle ageing, before it is finally released onto the market. Kaiken Ultra Malbec has an impressive ageing potential of up to 14 years and is sealed with a natural cork.
