Max’s Adelaide Hills Chardonnay
Max’s Chardonnay continues the evolution of the Penfolds white wine program. Inimitably Adelaide Hills aromatics …white stone fruits, notably peach & nectarine.

 

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

 

Max’s Shiraz Cabernet
An approachable style on release. Bluestone slatiness and waft of iron filings immediately captures attention. Structural grip and defined tannins wraps around a palate full of blueberry and mulberry brightness.

 

Max’s Cabernet Sauvignon
Pink peppercorn, chargrilled zucchini and barbequed red meats is the instant perfume. Structurally framed by beautifully integrated French and American oak, present but rarely mentioned.
