Description

Penfolds Max’s Shiraz 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 contemporary offering of South Australian Shiraz, this release provides a fruit-driven wine which is generous in flavour and persistent across the palate.

Tasting Notes

Crimson, with a ruby luminescence at the rim. The varietally distinct aromatic spectrum invokes chocolate truffle dusting, white cherries, musk, red liquorice, fresh pomegranate, hibiscus, bread and butter pudding, cinnamon with savoury notes of caper and green olive. The mouthfeel is succulent with abundant freshness/energy. Cherries are consistent from the nose to the palate, as is liquorice, however in this instance the impression is more akin to Dutch liquorice. Saffron, coffee bean, sarsaparilla and cola creaminess add to the to the textural interest, almost certainly oak derived elements that soften and encapsulates the tannins.
