winemaker's notes:

Of ruby red color, the wine shows hints of mature red berries, tobacco and spices accompanied by vanilla notes coming from the aging in French oak barrels

On the nose it is both elegant and complex. This Cabernet is a, mouth filling wine showing good structure with very soft tannins due to an optimal grape picking time at the vineyards. The wine is ready to be enjoyed now and has a cellaring potential of 10+ years.

Grape Varieties: 98% Cabernet Sauvignon / 2% Malbec

alcohol by volume: 14.9%
critical acclaim:

"Kaiken's 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Ultra is reticent aromatically but with coaxing reveals aromas of cedar, spice box, floral notes, black currant and blackberry. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate, it has generous quantities of spice, layered fruit, as well as good balance and volume. It is slightly short in the finish which prevents an outstanding rating. It can be approached now although it is likely to evolve for 1-2 years."

The Wine Advocate

"A dark, beefy red, offering a spicy mix of currant, black cherry and red plum notes framed by hints of incense and leather, with light yet firm tannins on the cedary finish. Drink now. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 1,400 cases imported."
