Penfolds Max’s Cabernet Sauvignon Australian Red Wine 750 mL

100% Cabernet Sauvignon matured 12 Months In French Oak American Oak.

Looks: Dark red with crimson hues.

Nose: Enticing aromatics, with exotic fruits of the forest leaping from the glass. Raspberry, black cherry, olive tapenade and oolong tea are framed by a subtle char toast character. Hints of sea spray and a distinct Campari note linger.

Palate: Taut in texture, fine tannin with a savoury profile. Cranberry represents the red fruit spectrum, with lingering flavours of yellow plum, bay leaf and sage. Root vegetable earthiness is evident on the finish. Structurally framed by beautifully integrated French and American oak, present but rarely mentioned.
