Penfolds Max's Cabernet Sauvignon is a regional blend that gives the wine a fuller more intense mouthfeel. It has rich blackcurrant and toffee-apple like aromas on the nose, followed by dense savoury varietal fruits on the palate. Tannins are firm with subtle oaks leading to a long finish.
Penfolds Max’s Cabernet Sauvignon 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. Max’s Cabernet Sauvignon displays the Penfolds ‘stamp’ inspired by Max Schubert.
Winter and spring rainfall was above average across South Australia, creating healthy soil moisture profiles for the growing season. Below average, cool conditions prevailed until October, delaying the commencement of the growing season. Canopy and crop management was a priority for the viticulture team and growers, who had to work hard to ensure quality met expectations. Weather conditions in April for harvest were generally drier, conditions favouring fully ripened grapes with well-developed colours and flavours.
