4Kilos 2020 MG

The 4Kilos 2020 MG (1.5 L) is a beautifully understated Mallorcan red that showcases the island’s signature grape, Callet, in its most refined and elegant form. Bottled at just 12% alcohol and sourced from organically farmed vines aged 20 to 50 years, it’s a wine that privileges purity, finesse and drinkability over power. This magnum bottling captures the quiet sophistication that has made 4Kilos the benchmark quality producer on Mallorca, and 2020 is widely regarded as one of their finest vintages to date.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the 2020 4Kilos shows a luminous, translucent ruby hue—more reminiscent of a fine, cool-climate red than a typical Mediterranean heavyweight. The nose is delicately perfumed and complex, with notes of dried rose petals, talc, subtle spice and a lifted citrus freshness reminiscent of orange zest. Hints of red berries, pomegranate and Mediterranean herbs add further nuance as it opens in the glass. On the palate, this wine is all about precision and finesse rather than volume. It feels light on its feet yet serious and focused, with fine-boned structure and great balance. The Callet delivers subtle red fruit flavors wrapped in a chalky, almost powdery tannin profile that gives the wine an elegant, textural grip. The finish is savory and mouthwatering rather than sweet, leaving a delicate, saline echo and a quietly persistent length. In magnum, the 2020 vintage has particularly good aging potential—expect it to evolve beautifully over 8–12 years, gaining complexity and tertiary nuances while retaining its freshness.

Production
Sourced from various organically farmed vineyards around the village of Felanitx on Mallorca, the 2020 4Kilos is rooted in the island’s distinctive “call vermell” red clay soils. These iron-rich, well-draining soils, combined with the Mediterranean climate and moderating sea breezes, give Callet its hallmark delicacy and aromatic lift. Grapes from 20–50-year-old vines are carefully hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness at relatively low alcohol levels. Fermentation takes place in equal parts stainless steel and oak, using only indigenous yeasts to faithfully express the local terroir. The wine then matures for 12 months in large 600-liter Allier oak barrels that are on their third and fourth use, ensuring subtle integration and oxygenation without overt oak flavor, before being bottled—this cuvée in February 2022—with minimal intervention to preserve purity and precision.

Food & Serving
This refined, medium-bodied red is an excellent partner for elegant, nuanced dishes rather than heavy or overly rich fare. Think grilled or roast poultry, rabbit, veal scallopini, charcuterie, or delicately spiced lamb dishes. It also shines with Mediterranean cuisine—grilled vegetables, ratatouille, tuna or swordfish, and simple tapas such as jamón Ibérico and aged Manchego. Serve at 14–16°C (57–61°F) to highlight its aromatic complexity and freshness. In magnum format, a short decant of 30–45 minutes is recommended to allow the wine to unfold its floral and spicy nuances, especially in its youth.

Producer
Founded in 2006 by winemaker Francesc Grimalt and music producer Sergio Caballero, 4Kilos has quickly become the leading quality reference on the island of Mallorca. The name "4Kilos" refers to the modest initial investment—four million pesetas—with which they launched the project, relying more on talent and vision than on capital. Grimalt, known for rescuing and championing the indigenous Callet grape, has put Mallorcan reds on the international fine wine map through a focus on organic farming, low yields and sensitive, minimal-intervention winemaking. Today, 4Kilos is widely recognized as one of Spain’s most exciting boutique producers, celebrated by critics for their transparent, terroir-driven wines that express the unique character of Mallorca’s landscapes and native varieties.
