Penfolds Max’s Shiraz Cabernet is a tribute to former Chief Winemaker Max Schubert 1948- 1975, a legend in Penfolds history. Max’s constant pursuit of excellence paved the way for those who followed in his footsteps and also allowed the status and heritage of Penfolds to grow. A more approachable Penfolds style at release - ideally shelf to glass, save the cellar.

COLOUR
Plum core with strawberry brightness at
the rim
NOSE
Notes of graphite and heady varnish to
the fore. A distinctive blue-fruited
elegance and gorgeous cranberry
sweetnes. An aromatic kaleidoscope of
vanilla sponge, cannoli creaminess,
asphalt, wet slate, juniper and pink
peppercorn._x000D_
PALATE
A salinity – perhaps best described as
salted plum? Coolness/flowing texture.
Spearmint tea (fresh leaves) and lavender.
Graphite from the nose continues as a
theme on the palate, Black olive
tapenade. Ylang Ylang, powdery-style
tannins that are tapered on the palate. All
clearly converging to a well-defined point.
