Penfolds Max Cabernet

All the hallmarks of classic cabernet
sauvignon are present and accounted for.

NOSE:
First impressions are reminiscent of a stroll
through the garden. Earthy, leafy notes
prevail with dried native mint adding a lovely
herbal note.

Further investigation reveals cocoa powder,
red currants and blood orange.
Underlying cedar notes and cherry wood add further oak derived intrigue.

PALATE:
An abundance of delightful primary fruit
characters with blueberries, strawberries
and pomegranates competing for
attention.

French and American oak maturation
characters add a pleasing creaminess and
weight to the palate with a distinctive
hazelnut signature.

Firm tannins with length and drive are
supported by a seam of refreshing acidity.
