What’s a good red wine to go with steak?

When pairing wine with steak, you're looking for a wine that can match the rich and robust flavours of the meat. Typically, full-bodied red wines with good tannin structure complement the juicy and savoury character of a steak. Based on the details provided, the **Kaiken Ultra Cabernet Sauvignon** from Mendoza, Argentina, would be a fantastic choice. This wine is a classic example of a new world Cabernet, with concentrated black fruit flavours and deeper coffee-chocolate notes. Such rich profiles can intensify the delicious steak experience, creating a harmonious blend of flavours.

Another excellent option would be the **Tamaral Reserva** from the prestigious Ribera del Duero region in Spain. Its structured profile, with bold blackberry and cherry flavours underpinned by herbaceous depth, would beautifully complement the richness of the steak. A wine like this, with its complexity and depth, will enhance the umami profile of the meat, making every bite and sip a pleasurable sensation.

Both of these wines offer excellent pairings, but don't hesitate to consider the **Kaiken Ultra Malbec** as well. Known for its generous deep fruit flavours and long, satisfying finish, it presents a perfect fruity complement to the umami flavours of a well-cooked steak.
