Description
Penfolds Max’s Chardonnay 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. Max’s Chardonnay continues the evolution of the Penfolds white wine program, drawing inspiration from the legacy and spirit of the many wine trials of Max Schubert.
The palate is no less enticing, ripe white peach, finger lime and lemon sorbet. There is a sweet creamy/biscuity character redolent of freshly baked
cheesecake, most likely a lees/battonage influence. A fine line of balanced mineral like acidity adds length and bodes well for food pairing.
