Kaiken Ultra 2020 Malbec is vegan-friendly and produced from organically-grown grapes sourced from high-altitude vineyards located in Uco Valley's Los Chacayes zone. Thus well-known beauty is plushy and concentrated on the palate and with the 2020 vintage being a warm, grapes were able to ripen completely and evenly tempered with cool nights in the vineyard. Produced from 100% Malbec, look for ripe dark berry, earthy florals, dark chocolate, smoky, spicy and mineral notes creamy on the palate. Warming at 14.5% abv, enjoy this juicy and bright Malbec with sirloin steaks from the grill.

Malbec food pairings: roast lamb, veal dishes, grilled pork chops, cheese.
