For over 160 years, Penfolds have been a producer of the most memorable wines. By virtue of a commitment to producing nothing but the best, a tradition has evolved which has effected profound influence over the entire Australian industry. Max's presents the noble Cabernet Sauvignon in an approachable, fresh style for early enjoyment. The classic tour de force of power, structure and fruit, Max expresses opulent flavours over a fine structure and rich finish, put simply, the consumate early drinking Cabernet.
Max Schubert did more for the development of Australian Cabernet Sauvignon than any other winemaker. He was originally focused on Cabernet as the varietal of choice during his trials with the nascent vintages of Grange. The extensive expanse of Penfold vineyard resources have now been trained to yield parcels of the highest quality Cabernet Sauvignon, regardless of vintage conditions. Max is treated to a temperature controlled vinification on skins to develop the tannin profile, add structure and achieve balance while retaining fresh varietal characteristics. Upon completion of ferments, Max is filled to a selection of seasoned and new French oak barrels for a year's maturation.
TASTING NOTES
Dark magenta red core. Ripe currant bouquets, cranberry and dried Italian herb nose, lifted red cherries and ribena, blackcurrants and mint. A palate of great Cabernet line and defined length, red, blue and black fruits over a length of fine silky tannins, savouryness to the finish, vanilla Chai and sweetly spiced cinnamon, cedar oak.

More About Penfolds Winery
Penfolds was founded by a young English doctor who migrated to one of his country's most distant colonies a century and a half ago
Dr Christopher Rawson Penfold was born in 1811, the youngest of 11 children. He studied medicine at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London, graduating in 1838. Like many doctors before and since, Dr Penfold had a firm belief in the medicinal value of wine. Before he left Britain he had obtained vine cuttings from the south of France and these were planted around the site of the modest stone cottage he built with his wife, Mary, at Magill on the outskirts of Adelaide in 1845. The couple called this house The Grange, after Mary's home in England. Penfolds»
