Disobedience

Disobedience is the result of an unusual friendship: Kaiken Wines and celebrity chef Francis Mallmann — known from the Netflix documentary Chef's Table — celebrate their collaboration with this Malbec, which unites two contrasting terroirs of Mendoza.

The grapes come from Vistalba (Luján de Cuyo), where alluvial soils produce rich, complex wines, and from Altamira in the Valle de Uco, where limestone soils contribute freshness and varietal character. Fermentation takes place in concrete eggs, followed by 15 months of aging in French oak barrels (30% new, 70% used), and then six months of bottle aging. The nose is fruity and spicy with notes of nut and graphite, while the palate offers silky pulp, sweet, ripe tannins, and a long finish with hints of dark chocolate.

Goes well with grilled beef steak, leg of lamb or mature Manchego cheese — best served at 17–18 °C.

The Winery

Kaiken Wines

Kaiken Wines was founded in 2002 by the renowned Chilean winemaker Aurelio Montes. The winery is located in Mendoza, Argentina, and combines the Argentine terroir with Montes' expertise. The brand is named after the Patagonian wild geese that regularly cross the Andes, symbolizing the connection between Chile and Argentina.

The range includes high-quality red and white wines, including Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Torrontés. Kaiken wines are characterized by a perfect balance of power and elegance and reflect the unique terroir of the Andes. SWA Sommelier Wine Award: New World Producer of the Year 2024
